Toby Tate Obituary

Toby Dane Tate was a wonderful man of God. Toby ended his battle with cancer at the age of 42. He was born to Milburn and Carolyn Tate on February 27, 1967 in Carmichael, CA and taken to be with his precious Lord on January 26, 2010 in Redding, CA. He is also survived by his loving and devoted wife, Kaylene, of 17 years and two precious daughters Katalina (10) and Selena (7) and his sister Pamela.
Toby was a dedicated worker at Sierra Pacific Ind. for 16 years as a millwright, fabricator and crane operator. His true passion was his family and he loved gardening, hunting, fishing, camping and hiking with them as much as possible. Toby was an attendee of Neighborhood Church and belonged to the Christian Sportsman Club, "Fishers of Men"; serving his community through these two avenues.
Please join his family for services on February 6, 2010 at 10 a.m. at Neighborhood Church on Loma Vista to share stories and celebrate his life. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Neighborhood Church, memo: Tate Fund.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Dear Kaylene,
we just found out today that Toby has left this earth to be with Jesus. We enjoyed spending time with you at Mill Creek Campground last year, and we had been praying for Toby's healing - but God has other plans for Toby and your family. Please know that you and the girls are in our prayers! God is wonderful and He will lift you up!
In Christ,
Leonard,Inge Lusher & Family (Bryan & Brayden)
