Timothy retired from the tool & die and plastics industry while living in California where he designed molds for plastics. He had a brilliant engineer's mind and would take things apart just to see how they worked, then put them back together. A famous invention he created was one of the first "car-cups" sold by Tupperware that had a wide bottom and a narrow opening. He was a hard worker who enjoyed listening to classic hard rock while modifying his fast classic muscle cars. He modified a Dodge Roadrunner and would challenge anyone to grab a ten-dollar bill taped to the dash while he peeled rubber down the street. Aside from the love of all things Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath, Timothy had an appreciation for the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. However, his passion was his family. He simply loved being a husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He will be deeply missed.
