Tim was a very loving father who always put his kids first.   He lived in Idaho Falls and patiently traveled the 3 hour drive to be with his children for the weekends that he cherished most. He also did everything possible to attend dance recitals, soccer games, etc. –even though it often meant driving to the event and then turning right around and going back to Idaho. He prided himself on making the world’s best milkshakes!

Tim was passionate about wrestling and was 2nd in the state of Utah his senior year of High School.  He also was an avid runner and participated in multiple marathons.  He placed in the top 10  -St George Marathon, 1st- Race for the Cure and  3rd- Ogden Marathon.  Tim was a hard worker,  giving 100 % to everything he did.  His career included Kimberly Clark, and Basic American Foods in Idaho.  

Tim unselfishly served others, he was a devoted Elders Quorum President, Young Men’s President, nursery leader, etc.  He survived a brain tumor/ brain surgery, chemo and radiation with dignity and faith.
