Born: Jul 09, 1988
Date of Passing: May 25, 2017
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryROBERT EDWARD (BOBBY) LITTLE July 9, 1988 - May 25, 2017 It is with great sadness and regret that we announce the passing of Bobby Little, our son, brother, dad, uncle and friend. Bobby is survived by the greatest joy of his life, his son Liam, his mother Debbie (Ed), father Bob, sister Amanda (Jeff), sister Tanya (Dave), nephews Ethan and Jack, brother Stephen (Diane), very close uncle Marv, and true lifelong friend Lyndon Fraser; also Kayla (Liam's mom), and the Differ family, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins and numerous friends. Bobby was predeceased by Grandma Taschuk, Grandpa and Grandma Little, brother Colby, and close friend Jerrott Harrell. Bobby started life in Transcona and at the age of nine got the taste of country life near Lorette, MB, until he became a young man. His Transcona roots never left him. His adult life was highlighted by his incredible love for his dear son Liam. No love could be more deep and durable than Bobby's love for Liam...and who could forget his dog Odis and his kitties. Social media is a testament to this. Bobby spent many years working for the City of Winnipeg which he very much enjoyed. So many friends resulted in his career there. Boo...I will miss your daily calls and never a day will pass that I do not think about you, my son. You are loved and dearly missed. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Bobby's honour to a trust fund for Liam: Liam Little Support Fund, c/o Tanya and Amanda, at Assiniboine Credit Union. A celebration of Bobby's life will be held on Monday, June 5, 2017 at 1:00 p.m., Rev. Helen Kennedy officiating, Wheeler Funeral Home, 1800 Day Street, Winnipeg, MB. www.wheelerfuneral.com

It hurts me so much just for writing this. I just can't believe he has been gone for 8 years now. I remember the last day we spent together. At the time he died in didn't even know what the meaning of death was. But even then, I still was sad. Just 4 days after my birthday on 2017 was completely unexpected, and just horrible. I can't imagine any father being better then he was. He shall be with Jesus. Revelation 21:4: "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." - Posted by: Liam (Son) on: Jul 11, 2025

i got curious today to see if there were any sights or stuff to well, get to know my uncle’s life story better as his passing has taken a toll on me, as a toddler when i was about 6-7 years old it got news to me, at first i didn’t know what fentynal was or whatever happened to him but now here i am, 7 years later and well now that i know what it is what happened and all of that, it hurts me just to hear his name, as of writing this i am tearing up, i barely got to know him, i barely knew anything about who he was but i can just know for a fact that he was a great person, as of now it still hurts us, me, my mom, my grandma, amanda, it hurts us to this day and it was 7 years ago, i will never forget may 25th as that day it happened and we lost him, i wish he was still here i wish we known about the problem he was trying to tell us he had but we were oblivious, i just miss him and i wish he was still here, he was an amazing guy and will forever live on in my heart, i never can get him outa my head and i just hope i can get better soon, i wonder the world if he was still here today, what would it be like, what would change, i guess ill never know, i just thank him for being an amazing uncle while his time lasted with us, that concludes my tribute and thats all i wanted to say, thank you for reading - Posted by: Jack (Nephew) on: Dec 19, 2024

Very, very intelligent and caring man. Bob always worked so hard to make everyone around smile. He's a very good worker and quite dedicated to his duties. His excellent work was demonstrated as Bob quickly became a permanent employee for the city that he loved, the City of Winnipeg. Missed at work, Robert Duke - Posted by: Robert Duke (Friend at work) on: Nov 04, 2019

You were there for every big moment of my life little brother. You walked me down the aisle. You were with me when I had my kids. You were always with me. There's such a hole in my life where you used to be. You made me feel safe, and protected. You also made me meet you at the hospital so many times when you got hurt. I'm not going to miss that part. Your memory will live on with me. I can't wait to tell your son about all the crazy things you would do. I'll make sure he always remembers his dad. I promise Boo. - Posted by: Tanya (Sister) on: Jun 06, 2017

I'm so saddened & heartbroken for you all. My deepest thoughts & sympathies, prayers are with you all. I will sadly miss my Lil Booby and the sudden phone calls and messages I would get. The one phone call that stood out the most was on the first Mothers Day after Jerrett passed when I isolated myself from the world. I answered the phone and this voice said Happy Mothers Day Mom. I cried as it sounded like my Jerrett. It was my Lil Booby he took my heart away. He and the boys took Ravyn under their wings after Jerretts passing. She will miss you Big Brother Point being he thought of others and gave selflessly of himself. You will be so very missed by many Bud! I loved as my own and will always cherish the fond memories of you and the boys. Gone and never forgotten Angel. Love you always Ravyn (lil Sis) & Della (The Moms) - Posted by: Della () on: Jun 01, 2017
