For more than 50 years, he faithfully served his community as a firefighter and EMT with Rosewood Volunteer Fire Department, dedicating his life to helping others with courage and unwavering commitment. His service was more than a profession; it was a calling, and he earned the respect and admiration of those who had the privilege of serving alongside him.
Tim was an accomplished mechanic, working for various industrial corporations. He retired from the state of North Carolina after serving more than 20 years at Cherry Hospital and O’Berry Center.
Tim also found immense joy in various outdoor activities. He loved golfing with friends, fishing, and spending time at Kerr Lake with his family.
