He was united in marriage to the love of his life, Dorothy S. Edwards. Timothy was employed with Central States and later retired from Florida Power & Light after many years of dedicated service.
Timothy had a passion for mechanical work and was well known for his ability to repair and restore vehicles. He especially enjoyed working on automobiles, motorcycles, and engines, including antique cars, and took great pride in his craftsmanship. In his leisure time, he enjoyed watching uplifting worship services, keeping up with the news, and relaxing with his favorite westerns. He will be remembered for his mechanical talents, his love of working with his hands, and the many lives he touched throughout his journey.
