Timothy Scanlon Obituary

SENECA FALLS - It is with great sadness that the family of Timothy (Tim) Scanlon announces his unexpected passing on December 7, 2023, at the age of 57.

Services will be privately arranged by his family.

Tim was a lifelong resident of Seneca Falls. He was a graduate of Mynderse Academy and Cayuga County Community College. He dedicated 35 years of service to ITT Goulds Pumps. Tim was an avid WWII history buff with an encyclopedic knowledge of war planes and battles. He also loved everything "Star Trek," "Star Wars," movies, and cars, especially 1960s Mustangs.

Beloved son of John and Mary (Klix) Scanlon; brother to Deborah (Jeff) Messmer, Patrick (Allison), Brendan and Cate; and uncle to Zachary (Elizabeth) and Elliot Messmer, and grand-niece Lucy Messmer. Tim will be greatly missed by his family and those who knew him.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Tim's memory may be directed to Beverly Animal Shelter, 50 E. River St., Waterloo, NY 13165, and the Canoga Volunteer Fire Department, 3576 Route 89, Seneca Falls, NY 13148.
