Tim was born on November 28,1963 in Bristol, Tennessee & was a resident of Gretna, Louisiana. He spent his life following his passions and loving deeply. He was a man who found joy in details-whether it was carefully building model airplanes, & ships, working on classic cars, or taking off on a motorcycle ride. He had a quiet way of making a big impact. Whether it was in his garage, garden, or a family gathering; he was a grounding presence- someone who listened well, spoke with intention, and made you feel at home just by being there.

Loving father of Edward Knight (Chloe Knight) and Melissa Knight Clark (Todd Clark); who carry forward his spirit, humor, & values.

Timothy is also survived by a host of nieces and nephews as well as his beloved canine companions whom he loved, Gumbo and Beignet. He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and loyalty.
