Timothy J. Heath beloved husband; father, father-in-law, grandfather, brother, son-in-law, brother-in-law, uncle and friend passed away at home surrounded by his loving family, July 3rd. Tim was born in Flint, Michigan and grew up in Flushing, Michigan. Tim graduated from MSU and loved his Spartans.

He fought with the determination of a fierce warrior against Primary Amyloidosis since diagnosis in 2012; which ultimately led to a heart transplant in 2013. In addition, he battled Squamous Cell Carcinoma of tissue/organ and bone. Our family remains grateful to Tim's plethora of amazing specialists; doctors and nurses who helped us along the way from both UCSF and UCDavis. Tim always had a smile on his face and will be remembered for his honesty, integrity, charisma and perseverance. Tim's love of family; friends and his strong faith will be his legacy. He leaves behind; his wife Cynde of 39 years, son, Todd Heath, daughter-in-law, Ashley Heath, daughter, Sarah Saenz, son-in-law, Mike Saenz, along with his only grandchild, Dominic Quinn Saenz born December, 2017. A Celebration of Life will begin with a Mass at St. Rose Catholic Church in Roseville, on August 3rd at 11:00 a.m. Reception following at The Falls Events Center in Roseville, CA. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to Amyloidosis Research Consortium at www.arc.org
