He was born November 24th, 1948 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Tim attended Bob Jones University and East Texas State University.

He was an active member of First Baptist of Dallas for 22 years and taught second graders in Sunday School for 14 years. For over 30 years Tim lived with the symptoms and limitations resulting from a reoccurring brain tumor and 4 craniotomies. In spite of that, he lived his life with joy and peace knowing that God was in complete control.
