Timothy Sullivan

Tim was born in his parents’ hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. When he was 7 years old, his family moved to Evansville, Indiana, where Tim established an illustrious career as a nationally ranked USA Swimming Champion. He continues to hold records at pools around the country. This strength won him an NCAA swimming scholarship at Western Kentucky University, and he continued his studies at Vincennes University where he later joined the swim team staff as Assistant Coach. He worked for the past 12 years as a Technical Support Specialist at OneMain Financial in Evansville, while living in Owensboro, Kentucky. Tim was a movie and television buff with an ardent love for professional wrestling, gaming, and pop culture. His young life in Cincinnati lead to a lifelong devotion to the city’s professional sports teams, the Reds and Bengals. Two of the joys in his life were his pet dogs, Emma and Walker. Tim was loved and respected by all who knew him. His sense of humor and very caring nature helped him to make friends easily and keep friends for life.

Tim is survived by parents, Timothy Sullivan and Deborah Sullivan (Crawford); grandmother, Mabel Crawford (Short); sister, Erin Sullivan; brother-in-law, Justin Peterson; partner, Kendall Jarboe; best friend, Kingston Hinton; aunts, uncles, and cousins.
