Born on a snowy New Years morning January 1, 1979 in Portales New Mexico. Timmy attended schools in Louisiana and Nashville. Graduating from high school in St. Amant LA, from St. Amant High School 2000.

Timmy never met a stranger. He loved meeting new people and once you met Timmy you had a friend forever. Everywhere he went Timmy was sure to know someone and he would offer a handshake, a smile, and a hug.

Timmy loved to dance especially to Michael Jackson. He enjoyed all music, but Michael Jackson music always got him going no matter how sick he was. Timmy was funny, if he did something wrong, or if something happen to fall in the next room, he would raise his hands up with a guilty look on his face, and shrug his shoulders, and say “I didn’t do it!”

In Tim's better days he loved to travel. If he saw his mama packing, he would start to pack his backpack with pencils, notebooks, and headphones. He knew that we were about to visit family. He rode around with his grandfather and spent time with his aunts, uncles, and cousins. They shared time at cookouts. Laughing and sharing good times was his highlight. He always looked forward to spending time with his brothers and sisters.

Fridays with Dipsy Gypsy was his favorite time for many weeks. His last days were filled with a lot of pain. Tim became more homebound but he loved his Saturdays with his mom. Saturdays with mom at her office watching “Rudy” and “The Blind Side” while he drew in his notebooks.

Having chocolate donut holes before having lunch when it would be time to leave to pick up my purse and keys, he would say to me “I go with you mom.” Tim was having more and more difficult days getting out and so the day that we went to the Fall Fest as a family was an exceptional day for all of us. he was really enjoying himself and he was full of smiles while he played the little games. He enjoyed his prizes and watching the other children enjoy themselves. We all love him together as a family. It was another day full of love and that is what he meant to me. Timmy passed from this earthly world to a place of glory and we were all blessed to be part of his world, Timmy’s world.
