Tmothy began working at The Fort Worth Star Telegram at age 15 and retired from there at the age of 49. He spent his time fishing the Trinity River and with family. He never met a dog he didn’t love and had the biggest heart you have ever seen.

Timothy is survived by his brother Jeffrey Ward, niece Skylar Ward, cousin Michelle Daugherty and her husband Billy Atwood and her sons Konnor and Brayden Atwood, and cousin Jack Daugherty and his daughter Lindsay Daugherty.
Visitation for Timothy will be at Chapel Hill Funeral Home on Sunday, April 6 from 1 pm – 6 pm. A graveside service will be in Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens on Monday, April 7 at 11:00 a.m.
