Tim, also known as “Toolman,” spent the majority of his working years at Kyger Creek Power Plant, where they became not just co-workers, but family.  Tim had a special place in his hearts for his brothers and sisters at Kyger Creek.

Tim had a nurturing and loving soul, which cannot be mimicked or replaced.  He enjoyed every second he had to spend with his family and friends.  In his free time, Tim loved to watch football - Gallia Academy Blue Devils, The Ohio State Buckeyes, The Cowboys, tennis, and any sporting events that he was able to attend especially when his children were on the field or on the court.  Tim also loved hunting, reading, history programs, watching movies, and making memories with his wife and children.

The funeral service for Tim will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 3, 2022 at Willis Funeral Home with Pastor Randy Carnes officiating.  Friends may call on Friday, September 2, 2022 at the funeral home from 4:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m.  Following the calling hours Friday, there will be a Masonic service held by the Morning Dawn Lodge #7 at 8:00 p.m. at the funeral home.

In lieu of flowers, an account has been established at Ohio Valley Bank for college education for Tim’s children, Olivia and Trent Meadows.  Finding ways to support his children was Tim’s top priority.
