Timothy Walsh Obituary
Reno - Timothy Patrick Walsh died suddenly from an unknown lung infection on August 6, 2019. He was born on September 24, 2001 to Paul and Suzanne Walsh in Reno, Nevada. Tim was their beloved son, and younger brother to Emily and Daniel - he completed their family.
Tim went to Lenz Elementary School, Pine Middle School, and had just graduated with honors from Bishop Manogue Catholic High School in June. He was enrolled at the University of Nevada and was excited to be moving into the dorms and beginning classes this fall. Tim was active in the drama program at Manogue and participated in the Lake Tahoe Young Shakespeare Program these last two summers, performing in Macbeth and The Taming of the Shrew. He performed in Lockdown last winter at Reno Little Theater as well as productions at Manogue and Pine. Tim was the manager of Miner TV at Manogue, and was on the bowling team.
Tim was interested in medieval history and the Crusades, and loved his collection of medieval regalia. He could often be found playing video games with his family and friends. Tim's favorite summer traditions were being with his family at Lake Tahoe and camping at Plumas-Eureka State Park. He had many wonderful memories of fun times and experiences with all of his many cousins.
Tim is survived by his loving parents Suzanne and Paul, sister and brother Emily and Daniel, grandparents James and Patricia Walsh and Georgina Traut, 28 aunts and uncles, and 31 cousins. Tim was predeceased by his grandfather John Henry Traut, aunt Elizabeth Walsh Sotero, and cousins James Scott Walsh and Will Paulsen Hawkins.
There will be a mass and celebration of Tim's life on Friday, August 16 at 5:30pm at St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church. A reception will follow immediately at Bishop Manogue Catholic High School. A scholarship in Tim's name is being established. Please contact Bishop Manogue Catholic High School at (775)336-6060 to contribute.
The family invites you to share memories and condolences in Tim's Book of Memories at www.waltonsfuneralhomes.com.

We are so saddened by Tims unexpected and tragic passing. Both my husband and myself had the privilege of working with Tim at Bishop Manogue Catholic HS via computer classes, MinerTV and the school newspaper, Miner Detail. Tims joyful outlook on life, and his enthusiasm and willingness to embrace daily challenges, set him apart as a very special young man. Tim would often share fun experiences he had with his family and how much he loved and appreciated them. Tims smile, his laugh and his spirit will never be forgotten.
Our sincere condolences, Karen and Marc Myrehn

We are so sad to hear about Tim. He was always fun to watch on the soccer field and a pleasure to coach. We are thankful for the wonderful soccer seasons our boys spent together. Our hearts go out to all of you.

I only got the chance to know Tim for the summer as his Stage Manager for Taming if the Shrew. He was a bright energetic young man who was a hard worker on stage and always had a smile. Though I only knew him for a month it's devastating to hear of a bright young soul is gone way too soon. I'm proud I got the opportunity to know him this summer and will miss his smile. I'm attaching a photo I took at one of the shows this summer.
My sincerest condolences to his family and friends.

Oh Timothy! I'm so sorry you passed. I'm in shock. I met you when you were so little on the soccer team. Your Dad and Mom knew all the ropes and we were all green behind the ears. You and your parents showed us the way of that sport. The boys would go to your house sometimes and play, you'd come here to play! You all went your separate ways as years gone, but remained friends. I followed you through your Mom on FB. How cool, I thought, that you were acting at The Shakespeare Festival! Wow! What a future you were to have. Timothy, I'm heartbroken for you and your family. I know your parents simply ADORE you! Rest In Peace Young Man! God Bless you and your Family during the terrible time and always!
