Tim Ellis Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Turner Funeral Home, Inc. - Chattanooga on Mar. 16, 2026.
Timothy "Tim" Ellis, 60, passed away on Saturday, March 14, 2026. Tim enjoyed working on vehicles, especially body work and painting. He loved cars and spending time around them. Tim especially enjoyed watching stock car races on the dirt track, it was something he looked forward to and loved talking about. Saturday mornings were spent eating breakfast at Waffle House with his brother, Lamar - those mornings together meant a lot to him.

Tim will be remembered for his love of cars and the times he shared with his brother. He will be deeply missed.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Kenneth and Hazel Ellis.

Tim is survived by his brother, Lamar Ellis.

Family will receive friends on Saturday, March 21, 2026 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at Turner Funeral Home. A chapel service will follow at 2 p.m. with Pastor Ken Wolfe officiating.

Tim will be laid to rest in McInturff Cemetery near his parents.

Please share your memories and express condolences to the family on their guestbook.
