Robert Marin Obituary

Visit the Harper-Talasek Funeral Home - Killeen website to view the full obituary.

Robert Tubby Marin was born on February 26, 1981, to Vicky White and Marty Allman. Robert was raised in the greater Killeen area, where he attended Killeen High School. Robert was proud to be from this city. Robert had a passion for low riders and art from a very young age. His grandmother often found homemade tattoo machines in his room, and his grandfather always indulged him with the best set of rims he could afford. They taught him hard work pays off. Raised by his grandparents, Robert considered them the solid foundation of his life.

Robert's love for art led to the success of his business, Familia Ink Tattoo Co., which was established in 2013. He believed that giving back to the community played a vital role in his accomplishments. His close friends and family meant the world to him and he made sure they all felt it. The greatest gift he gave to them was his time. 

Known for his generosity, Robert's larger-than-life heart shone through his daily actions. A humble individual, he always helped those around him.

 We will miss his laughter, We will miss his jokes, And we will forever miss him. 

His legacy will be forever cherished, remembered and celebrated.

Tubby is preceded in death by his son, Robert Antonio Allman. 

Survived by his close family and friends Virtudes White, Marty Allman, Leovardo “Leo” Marin, Mary “Chela” Marin, Tim , Ashley & Jaydon Slaven, Nadia Stephens Randy & Maggie Sullivan, Sandra Silvas, Nito, Aulani & Rocky Guerra and his dog Kilo.
