Memorial Book
Unexpectedly at his home on 16th March 2026, Tim aged 51 years of Blackburn. The adored son of Jill, loving and loved dad of Jamie and his partner Niamh, cherished grandad of Isla-Mai Victoria, loved sister of Jane and the late Vicky and a dear relative and good friend to many.
Keep fit fanatic, Tim could often be found at the gym working out, he took great pride in his appearance, always keeping himself in shape and kept to a strict nutritional diet. Tim was a true gentle giant, he had a tough exterior but the biggest heart in the world, he was naturally caring and people loved him instantly. He spent time working as a support worker and with his naturally giving personality, Tim was a firm favourite with those in his care, he also worked as crowd control at various football stadiums and worked the doors at local pubs and clubs. He was a proud dad to his son Jamie and the most doting grandad to his little princess Isla-Mai and he always looked forward to spending time with his family. At home, Tim enjoyed time in his garden and would always be on hand to help trim his neighbours bush and put out her bins, and in return she would make him the most delicious casseroles.
Tim was loved and cherished by all who knew him and he will be sadly missed but remembered for his kind and caring nature.
Family flowers only please, donations are being gratefully received in his memory on behalf of British Heart Foundation.
Tim you was one in a million, a good friend to not just me but my family and friends, you will never be forgotten for the smile you put on peoples faces, with your kindness and heart to always help others. You will truly be missed.
Love ya Tim.
