He enjoyed years of laughter and friendship with many of his fellow boaters. Tim leaves his cherished children of which he was so proud, Kendra Bowen (Paul), Khyle Croucher (Kari) and Michelle Alain (Jamie). After his children his next greatest pride were his grandchildren; Austyn, Maxwell, Ella, Bentley and Callie. In his last years his grandchildren brought him joy, laughter and lots of love (especially hugs & kisses). Tim spent many years in the specialty industrial service business sector in Sarnia and across Canada – making friends and colleagues Nationwide.

Tim lived and worked with COPD for 16 years and the last four years had his ups and downs with cancer.
