Tommy, a devoted husband, loving father, and cherished son, passed away on June 23, 2025, at the age of 47. Born on March 20, 1978, in Polk County, FL, he was known for his kind heart, strong work ethic, and joyful spirit.
Tommy spent many years coaching girls' softball, including his own daughters. With patience and dedication, he guided his players both on and off the field, leaving a lasting impact on countless young lives. He found joy in life's simple pleasures-fishing, riding back roads, and sharing laughter with those he loved. Tommy's sense of humor, easygoing nature, and big heart made him someone people naturally gravitated toward. Above all, he was a devoted family man-always ready to lend a hand, offer encouragement, and show up when it mattered most.
He is survived by his loving wife, Hillary Vaughn Robinson; three treasured daughters, Lyndsey, Emily, and Ryleigh Robinson; his mother, Bettie Reeves Gunter; and siblings, Leea Fetz, Gary Newsome, Beth Berke, Chelsi Claycomb, Chris Gunter (Anna), Jerad (Mandy) Gunter, and Erica (Mike) Dockins. He also leaves behind many extended family members and close friends who will miss him dearly.
Tommy was preceded in death by his father, Conrad Robinson; his stepfather, Dalton Gunter, who lovingly stepped in after his father's passing; and his sisters, Tina Reneé Robinson and Angel Claycomb.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to the Fabulous Fifties Foundation, P.O. Box 934, Fayetteville, TN 37334.
