Timothy's obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Timothy Stephen Hausfeld, who left us on December 27, 2024. Born on October 29, 1960, Timothy was a cherished individual known for his resilience, kindness, and generosity of spirit. Tim, as he preferred to be called, had a brightness and warmth of character that will be greatly missed.
Tim was preceded in death by his parents, James Richard and Rose Ann Hausfeld, as well as his birth parents, George Hamilton and Shirley Louise MacNeil. He leaves behind his beloved wife, Karen, children Christina, Tony, and Kelley, and grandchildren, Sophia and Benjamin. He is also survived by his sister, Patricia, and two brothers, Darrell and Blaise, as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins. While we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the remarkable life he led.
