LandinLakesI was able to do it by opening the site in SharePoint Designer 2013.

With the site open, go to Lists and Libraries in the upper left corner.

Find the list you wish to modify and in the right pane click on the Tiles View (Default).

In the "View" tag under the "XMLDefinition" tag, find the entry for <FieldRef Name="Modified" Ascending="FALSE"/> and remove it.

Save your site and voila, the Modified date is removed from your Tiles.

 

Please use a demo site to check this as it has been a while since I've needed to do it.

TonyC109 even if possible using SharePoint Designer I will definitively not recommend it since it's going to be your next problem. If you create pages in SharePoint online stay away of SharePoint Designer and try to figure out a solution using out-of-the-box webpart or Microsoft Search web part.
