Timothy John Lewis, beloved husband of Deb Lewis, passed away peacefully in Taber on Monday, October 27, 2014 after a courageous battle with cancer, at the age of 61 years old.
Relatives and friends were invited to meet with the family at Southland Funeral Chapel, 5006 - 48 Avenue, Taber on Wednesday, October 29, 2014 between 7:00 P.M. and 8:00 P.M.

Tim is survived by his wife of forty one years, Deb, his three children Shane Lewis, Tara (Mark) Coney and Corey (Skylar) Lewis all of Taber; three beautiful granddaughters Alyvia, Camryn and Rowyn Coney. He is also survived by his siblings Laura (Bill) Tempany and Tom (Elizabeth) Lewis as well as a large extended family.
He was predeceased by his parents Robert and Margaret Lewis, as well as Deb’s parents Josepha and Arthur Kunz.
Tim was raised on a farm in Cranford. Farming was Tim’s passion, along with his trucking business. He hauled water, livestock and grain, and owned numerous businesses. Tim, being a handyman, touched many people’s lives through his generosity. He was charismatic, fun-loving and forever a prankster.
Tim and Deb were married on September 1, 1973. They enjoyed many warm holidays together. Tim’s favourite pastime was spending time with his three grandchildren, whether it was driving lessons, sleepovers or going to the horse races. The Lewis door was always open to friends and family alike. As Tim would say, “keep your stick on the ice”. Over and out.
If friends so desire, memorial tributes in Tim’s name may be made directly to the Taber and District Health Foundation, 4326 - 50 Avenue, Taber, Alberta T1G 1N9.
