Tim graduated from the University of Utah where he earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in metallurgical engineering. He married and moved to the Chicago area where he worked for Inland Steel Corp. and retired after 33 years. Responding to a calling as a servant leader in the United Methodist faith, he then took a position of Director of Laity Ministries with the General Board of Discipleship of the United Methodist Church in Nashville, TN. Later he served as Tennessee Conference Lay Leader for several years. His passions in life were his Lord, his family, his church, his Bible study teaching, and fishing.
