Timothy Carroll Brake

He graduated from Dilley High School in 1981.

He worked as an aviation electrician in the US Navy. After Serving 10 years in the military, Tim loved his career and continued as an aviation electrician until retirement.

Tim found joy in life’s simple pleasures and small adventures. He loved taking peaceful nature walks, where the quiet beauty of the outdoors offered a sense of calm and reflection. Cooking was another source of happiness — not just a daily task, but a way to share love, comfort, and creativity with family and friends.

He also had a natural curiosity for how things worked and enjoyed exploring new electronic gadgets — from the latest kitchen tools to modern tech, he loved learning, tinkering, and keeping up with innovations that made life easier (and sometimes just more fun).

Above all, nothing compared to the time spent with his grandchildren. Whether sharing a home-cooked meal, telling stories, or just enjoying each other’s company, those moments were his most cherished. The laughter, patience, and playful spirit created lasting memories that will live on in the hearts of his family forever.

He is preceded in death by his Parents Annette Elaine & Fred Brake, Brother Christopher Brake.
