Longtime harness racing industry participant Robin Maureen Twaddle passed away peacefully after a brief illness on October 15, 2021, at the age of 65.

Always a hard worker, Robin spent most of her career in the hospitality industry, working at Woodbine and Mohawk Racetracks, and championing her brother Tim in his harness racing career. She briefly lived in Victoria, B.C., The Pas, Man., Sacramento, Cal., Nashville, Tn., and her beloved Island of St. Kitts, but spent the majority of her life in St. Catharines, Ont. where she was born. She was happiest at the beach, having spent some of her childhood in Key West, Fl.

Robin's true love was her nieces and nephew, and her great-nieces. She loved them fiercely and they brought so much joy into her life and vice-versa. She will be fondly remembered for her immense love of children, her endless kindness and her infectious laugh. You could always, always count on "Robbie" for anything. She will be missed every single day and the world is a bit darker since her passing.

Robin will be lovingly remembered by her parents Patricia (nee Morris) Twaddle, Robert Twaddle, her sister Cindy (nee Twaddle) Marron and brother Timothy (Sophia) Twaddle. A caring aunt to Jennifer (Bob) and Jaclyn Marron, and to Meadow, Lexi and Parker Twaddle, and a great-aunt to Elyse, Amelie, and Audrey Tarle. Also left to remember her fondly are her many cousins and friends.

As per Robin's wishes, cremation has taken place. Arrangements entrusted to Passfield Mortuary Services Inc. (905) 682- 0474. A funeral mass will be held at Star of the Sea Catholic Church on October 28 at 11:30 a.m. for fully vaccinated family and close friends. Interment following at Victoria Lawn Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.
