IN THE CARE OF
Carmichael - Hemperley Funeral Home and Crematory
Tim, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and
brother, passed away at his lakeside home in Peachtree City, Georgia, on
January 11, 2025, at the age of 69.
Born on January 2, 1956, in Jackson, Mississippi,
Tim lived a life full of service, dedication, and generosity. After graduating
from Baylor University in 1979, he proudly served his country as a commander in
the United States Navy, where he distinguished himself as a skilled naval
aviator. During this time, Tim flew the anti-submarine warfare P-3B while on
deployment to Japan, the Philippines, and the Indian Ocean. Tim’s love for
flight also carried him into a second career as a Delta Air Lines captain, where
he flew a number of commercial airline jets, including the Lockheed L-1011 and
Boeing 767. For many years, he navigated the skies with precision and poise.
When not soaring above the clouds, Tim found joy
and fulfillment at his home on the lake, which became the heart of his family
life. An avid water sports enthusiast from childhood, he spent countless hours
introducing his children and grandchildren to the thrill of tubing, knee
boarding, waterskiing and wakeboarding, creating cherished memories that will
last for generations.
Following his retirement, Tim turned his attention
to giving back, dedicating his time and energy to the Midwest Food Bank. His
unwavering commitment to helping others reflected his deep belief in service
and philanthropy, a hallmark of his character. He was always willing to lend a
hand to his family, friends, and community. Tim’s loyalty, selflessness, and
dedication left an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing
him.
Tim is survived by his caring wife, Cathy; his
children, Jonathan Therrell, Amanda Albert, Ashley Therrell, Christopher
Therrell and Jennifer Mikolyski; and his adored grandchildren. He will also be
remembered by a host of extended family members, including his three brothers,
Brad Therrell, Steve Therrell and Jimmy Therrell who cherished his warmth,
humor, and steady presence.
As a pilot, a patriot, and a patriarch, Tim lived
a life marked by dedication to his family, community, and country. He leaves
behind a lifetime of faithfulness, service, and cherished memories that will
forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that
donations be made in his honor to the Midwest Food Bank, continuing his legacy
of helping others.
