Tyler James Robbins

Tyler James Robbins of Edmonton, AB passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, at the Royal Alexandra Hospital on October 27, 2022, at the age of 38 years. Tyler is the beloved son of Gloria Robbins of Taber, AB. He is survived by his well-loved son Eric Chaisson of Lethbridge, AB and his caring and loving sisters: Naomi (Mike) of Medicine Hat, Amber of Lethbridge, Joanne of Calgary, Jaymie of Lethbridge, Chaylene of Airdrie, Rebecca of Medicine Hat, and Ashlee (Cory) of Lethbridge.

He is also survived by nieces and nephews: Lucas, Isaac, Nathan, Andrew, Karagyn, Brandon, Justin, Cyler, Evan, Lynnae, Rodolfo, Dionicio, Timoteo, Tashiah, Zak, Myron, Emileen, Heber, Julie, Seth, Aden, Jada, Troy, Nico, Nova, and several cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends. 

He was predeceased by his father James Ray Robbins, his grandparents Dorothy and Donald Phillips, grandfather Eugene Robbins, and uncles Douglas, Donald, and Brad Phillips. 

Tyler was born on February 22, 1984, in Williams Lake, BC and was raised in Medicine Hat and Lethbridge, AB. His Friends and family will remember him for his contagious laugh and joking nature. He was always dancing and full of life. He loved school, was on the honor roll, and dreamt of becoming a novelist as he enjoyed writing. He was very athletic with his sport of choice being football, to which he was a dedicated and passionate teammate. Tyler enjoyed being outdoors.  He enjoyed large family gatherings and spent time with many friends and cousins growing up. He was a hard worker and was skilled in the trades, always working with his hands. He dreamt of being able to provide for a family but was robbed of that chance by the illness of addiction, which he fought for many years. The memory of his bright blue eyes, his love and generosity and his quick wit will never be forgotten. Our broken hearts will forever feel the loss and emptiness of his absence.
