Robin William Lane Obituary

It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Robin William Lane in Toronto on August 13, 2021, at the age of 49.

Robin was a loving son, husband, father, uncle, brother and a loyal friend to many. As a young man, he was a member of the Royal Canadian Air Cadet Program proudly earning his glider pilot's license. He was a talented musician spending his favourite pastime playing drums with his friends and his son Jacob. He shared his interest in computers and video games with his eldest son, Ben.

He was predeceased by his mother Barbara. He leaves behind his spouse Marcela, sons Ben and Jacob, his father Dennis, his sisters Kristin (Scott) and Karen (Sonny), his nephews Steven and Jason, his nieces Kaitlin, Michaela, Zofia, Aeryn and Paige as well as many other cherished friends and family members.

Cremation will take place under the care of Eirene Cremation Services. A private memorial service will be held at a later date. For those who wish, a donation in Robin's memory can be made to Canadian Music Therapy Fund or any charity organization of your own choosing.

“My deepest sympathies and condolences go out to the Lane family. If ever there was an individual who was caring, smart, funny, & compassionate; it was Robin. He will be sadly missed and was such an amazing person in all aspects of life. I've had the privilege of meeting Robin back in our robotics days at Centennial & we worked together at SMC.

Nadia Costopoulos wrote a sympathy message

“Robin and I worked for many years together at SMC in the Customer Service department and I always appreciated Robin's creativeness, quirkiness, deep caring for the customers that was surpassed only by his love for his family. His children and wife were constant subjects of conversation in our daily work lives. We used to argue about the meaning of words. I still have the dictionnary that he gave me as a joke so that I could improve my vaocabulary! So long friend. It is now time to rest.”
