Timothy James Langenfeld

He was born July 15, 1978 in Williamsville, New York to Richard and Nancy Langenfeld. He attended Williamsville South High School, and received his Bachelors and Masters Degrees from Hilbert College.

Timothy moved to Charlotte, North Carolina in 2004, and began his career as an elementary school teacher before moving into sales and restaurant. He eventually had a son, Nash with his longtime friend and love, Amy Cogan.

Timothy loved people and had a soft soul that touched many lives. He was a bright star that was often the life of the party. People were drawn to Tim because of his wit, charm and charisma. He enjoyed precious time doing fun outings with his son, working out, playing his guitar and listening to country music with some good old Motley Crue thrown in the mix. However, what he treasured most was spending time with his family which was the heartbeat that kept him motivated in life.

His life was a living example of that too often, we dwell on the past and worry about the future. Live in the moment and act on the power of the present.

Timothy is survived by his mother, Nancy Langenfeld, his father Richard Langenfeld, his sister Holly, brother Michael, his young son Nash and his many nephews, nieces, cousins, aunts and uncles. He was preceded in death by his brother Brendon, and his loving grandparents. All of these he loved and touched deeply.

A celebration of his life will be held, the date is to be determined.

You know I'm a dreamer

But my heart's of gold

I had to run away high

So I wouldn't come home low

Just when things went right

It doesn't mean they were always wrong

Just take this song and you'll never feel

Left all alone

Take me to your heart

Feel me in your bones

Just one more night

And I'm comin' off this

Long and winding road

I'm on my way

Home sweet home

You know that I've seen

Too many romantic dreams

Up in lights, fallin' off

The silver screen

My heart's like an open book

For the whole world to read

Sometimes nothing keeps me together

At the seams

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

Home sweet home

Tonight tonight

I'm on my way

Just set me free

Home sweet home
