Edward Leon Robinson Jr. Obituary (1977 - 2020)

Edward Leon Robinson Jr., 42, passed away on April 4, 2020 at home. He was the husband of Tiffany Robinson. They shared 10 years (4-10-10) of marriage and fifteen wonderful years together. Not a day went by that she didn't feel loved, wanted, and needed. If Edward loved you, you knew it, that's the type of man he was. He wanted all his loved ones to know how much he cared and he expressed it in a way only he could. Born in Galveston, Texas, on August 26, 1977, he was the eldest son of Edward Robinson Sr. and Joyce Robinson who affectionately referred to him as "Poody". Edward loved to be around family. Whether it was sitting out in the yard just "chopping" it up, or appearing as a united front at his youngest son's basketball games to cheer him on, nothing made him happier than being surrounded by his loved ones. He graduated from La Marque H.S., in La Marque, Texas, class of 95', and went on to attend Prairie View University. He was employed at Dr. Pepper-Keurig, where he worked for ten years, first as a driver and then as an inventory clerk. Edward took pride in his work, and in everything he did. To him many of his co-workers were like family and he never hesitated to offer them his take on life or his "advice." Edward had a way of speaking and relating to all. He made friends everywhere he went and had a special bond with each one. He enjoyed playing dominoes online and in person. He loved to play and talk trash, but it was always fun and always out of love. He will be remembered for his character, his heart, and his infectious personality that radiated everywhere he went. He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Webby and Mattie V. Brown and Felton and Earline Robinson; uncle and aunt, Kevin and Carolyn Brown and his uncle's Felton Jr., Earl, Wayne and Tim Robinson. He is survived by his loving spouse Tiffany Robinson, his sons and pride and joy, Daishaun Kidd and Edward Robinson III, his daughter, De Jah Brewer (BDE), his loving parents, Edward Robinson Sr., and Joyce Robinson, his siblings, Chundra Robinson (Bruce), who he fondly referred to as "Sissy", and Webby Robinson who he adored. Edward also left behind to cherish his memory his beloved nieces, London Robinson and Brielle Taylor (his pretty girls) and nephews, Jaden Robinson, Justice Robinson, and Brayden Taylor, along with a host of Aunt's, uncles, cousins, extended family and friends. May he be forever missed, but never forgotten. For those who would like to say their last goodbye, a public viewing will be 5pm to 7pm on Saturday, April 11, 2020 and 3pm to 5pm on Sunday, April 12, 2020 at Carnes Funeral Home, Texas City.
