Timothy Robert Lytle, 67 of Abilene passed away October 27th 2023 at his home following a 17-year valiant fight with cancer. Tim was born February 18th 1956 in Irvine California to Robert and Charlotte Lytle. His stepdad, Darrell Fletcher came into his life when he was a young boy and raised him like his own, he and his wife Mona of Groves, Texas survive.
On October 21st 1978 Tim married Debbie Davis and to this union 3 children were born. Prior to the cancer diagnosis, Tim worked for Great Plains-Land Pride manufacturing for as a Computer Assisted Design manufacturing supervisor for more than 20 years. Tim always kept a positive outlook even during his bad days fighting cancer and cherished his family.
To know Tim was to love him and nobody loved him more than his 6 grandkids and nieces and nephews. His grandkids, Ali, Mady, Dawsyn, Daxtyn, Penelope, and Decker brought so much joy to his life. Dad and Papa were his greatest titles and he wore them with pride. Some of his best times were spent camping and hunting with the boys. He was always seen at a sporting event for his kids either as a coach or a spectator never missing a chance to watch those he loved. Whether it be wrestling, softball, football, baseball, or dancing he never missed the chance to see his kids, nieces and nephews, and grandkids do what they loved.
Tim didn't know a stranger and always had a kind word or a hug for anyone he encountered. He made you feel special no matter who you were. Tim loved fiercely and with his whole heart. Tim and Debbie just celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary and he would always take the chance to tell you how much he loved her.
