Timothy Reese, Sr.
1955 – 2022

Tim was the youngest child of Betty and Earl. He had one older sister, Karen. He was a mischievous kid. He enjoyed planning his own birthday parties and surprising his mother with a house full of kids after school. He was quiet, but good humored. As a teenager who graduated from Nazareth High School in 1972 at the age of 17 he raised some hell before officially becoming an adult. He met the love of his life, Linda in late 1972 and they were married in June 1973. They welcomed their first child, Tim Jr. In February 1974. They had four more children, all girls, Kristi, Julie, Abby, and Missy. They had 9 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren before his passing in 2022. Tim loved the Philadelphia Eagles and one of the greatest days of his life was their first Super Bowl win! He loved football in general, and he thought Tom Brady was a cheater and always rooted against him. He adored his family and often sat as a quiet observer, smiling and laughing, as the kids played. He turned to mush for his grandkids, and they could even get the tv remote from him and could get Dunkin from him anytime they wanted. He loved coffee and couldn’t pass a Dunkin without stopping. Tim was hard working and fiercely loyal to his family. His dad was one of his best friends, and he missed him greatly. He was a lover of country western music including outlaw country’s greatest voice, Johnny Cash. He knew his way around cars, and could coach anyone to fix anything. He enjoyed a car ride on a sunny day to all his old stomping grounds. He and Linda often got lost for hours on drives. He loved trains and Christmas. He built his Plasticville platform every year with the old locomotive steam train riding around the town to bring Christmas to life.
