Tim Borsum

Anderson - Timothy Graham Borsum, 55, of Anderson, SC, passed away on Tuesday, March 12, 2019. A native of Grand Haven, MI, Tim also called Columbia, SC, Atlanta, GA and Coshocton, OH home throughout his life.

He attended the University of Michigan and received both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of International Business degree from the University of South Carolina-Columbia. He spent many years as a marketing specialist in the manufacturing industry.

He was a man of deep faith who attended Concord Baptist Church, where he served as a deacon and spent countless hours serving the community.

He is survived by Kavita Borsum, his wife of 29 years, and two children, Graham Borsum, 20, and Anjali Borsum, 18. Also, his parents, Alvin and Patricia Borsum of Lexington, SC and his sister, Suzanne Kamata of Tokushima, Japan.

In addition to being a devoted and loving husband, father, son and friend, Tim was a dedicated runner, world traveler, impressive snow skier, all-around sports fan and could do just about anything with a Volkswagen. But his greatest joy was spending time with his family. He touched many lives, improved many communities and his passing leaves every gathering less complete.

Visitation will be from 3 to 5 pm Saturday, March 16, at Concord Baptist Church, 1012 Concord Road in Anderson, and the funeral will be at 2 pm Sunday, March 17, at Concord Baptist Church. Burial will be at Forest Lawn Memorial Park.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Haven of Rest, 219 W. Whitner Street, Anderson, SC 29624 or Concord Baptist Church, Oil Change Ministry, 1012 Concord Road, Anderson, SC 29621.

I knew Tim from when he worked with me at Howden. He was a good man and a good researcher. His death has shocked all of us who knew him. On behalf of those Tim knew at Howden, I express our deepest sympathy.

I want to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. I know first hand that there aren't words to help you with the pain that you are all feeling, but your faith will get you though this!! Tim was one of my favorite scout dads. He was quick to volunteer to help and did so with enthusiasm and a smile on his face. I remember one of the first years on a camp out we were all sitting listening to a leader discuss all that was required to be able to swim at camp. The presentation had gone on longer than most and we all were ready to get on with the swim test. After the point was belabored one time too many , Tim raised his hand and asked "what if you are a Navy Seal? Do you still have to do all of this?" (or something along those lines.) We all just laughed and laughed! From that point on I would call him "seal" when I saw him.

A humble man with a big heart who was the key proponent, organizer, and cheerleader for the Concord Baptist Church Oil Change Ministry which has touched the lives of countless widows, single mothers, and others. His legacy will live on every time this ministry is performed in the future. Truly a man whose legacy will endure far beyond his time on this earth.
