Timothy Sheets Obituary

Timothy J Sheets, 65, of Frankfort, passed away on Dec. 20, 2021 at his residence. He was born Jan. 12, 1956 in Frankfort to Robert and Britta (Stokes) Sheets.

After graduating from Clinton Central High School in 1974, Tim went onto become an over-the-road truck driver. This career path allowed him to not only explore the country coast to coast – it also gave him ample time to ponder life's greater meaning. Timothy Sheets was a simple man, a quiet man, but also the most caring, fun-loving and witty person to those that had the pleasure of knowing him. He was a devoted father and took great pride in providing for his family. In his spare time, Tim enjoyed visiting with his family and friends, going out to eat, listening to late-night radio programs and watching his favorite tv shows.

Tim is survived by two daughters, Lindsey (Aaron) Harper of Frankfort and Candi Cook of Stevensville, Maryland; one son, Matthew (Whitney) Sheets of Michigantown; one brother, Theodore (Margaret) Sheets of Greenwood; two sisters, Toni (Mike) Linson of Christiana, Tennessee, and Tracey (JT) Goldsberry of Carmel; and four grandchildren, Austin Harper, Jase Harper, Makayla Harper and Cooper Sheets.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Britta Sheets; grandparents, Ernest and Helen Sheets, and Faye and Della (Kelly) Stokes; brother, Thomas Sheets; and ex-spouse, Deborah Sheets.

A private celebration of life for close family and friends will be held at a later date. In lieu of monetary donations, please honor Tim's legacy by donating blood at your local blood bank. In his lifetime, Tim had donated over 16 gallons of blood to the American Red Cross. Clinton County Crematory and Goodwin Funeral Home, 200 S. Main St., Frankfort are assisting the family with arrangements. Please visit goodwinfuneralhome.com, where you may leave a message for the family.
