An avid outdoorsman, Tim’s passions included hunting, fishing, and boating. He was a proud member of the Wild Turkey Federation and cherished time spent in nature. Tim also had a love for speed, enjoying dirt bikes and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. His zest for life and adventurous nature left a lasting impression on friends and family.
