He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, outdoorsman, and faithful servant of the Lord whose life touched countless people in his community.

Timothy was a dedicated Deacon and member of Community General Baptist Church and loved the Lord deeply.

He wore many hats throughout his career at Kroger, he was a logger and a meat cutter. He celebrated his retirement after over 30 years, but still never kept still.

Timothy was a lifelong nature lover who enjoyed fishing, hunting, and spending time in nature. A proud member of the Silver Creek Beagle Club, he raised many Beagles and truly enjoyed his faithful pet companions. Other hobbies he cherished were woodworking and whittling; he was a man who could fix anything.

Timothy was known to take care of everyone. He never met a stranger and was always willing to lend a helping hand. He had a special place in his heart for children and was a long-standing donor to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. He adored his beloved wife of over 60 years, Magdalene, and always made sure she was well taken care of, even above himself. His family will remember his strong moral character, generous spirit, and the lasting impact he made on everyone who is fortunate enough to have known him.

Along with his parents, Timothy was preceded in death by his sister, Pauline Knuckles Parrott; and his brothers, Odell Knuckles and Cody Knuckles.
