Charles Timothy "Tim" Gunn, age 70, a native of Silas, AL and resident of Spanish Fort, AL, passed away on August 15, 2025, in Mobile, AL, surrounded by his loving family.

Tim spent his career in Sales, retiring after 30 years with Pitney Bowes before working another decade in the security industry. Throughout his career, he was known as a gifted and successful salesman, respected by colleagues and customers alike.

He was a devoted member of 3 Circle Church in Daphne, AL, where his small group and Bible study community were an important part of his life and faith. The friendships and fellowship he found there deeply enriched his walk with Christ.

For Tim, nothing mattered more than family. His greatest joy was the love he shared with his wife and the family they built together. He filled his days with his grandchildren's sporting events and spending quality time together with them. He also loved hunting, fishing, and traveling with close friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Herbert and Rubye Gunn. He is survived by his loving wife of 41 years, Jamie Gunn; his sons, Peyton (Hilary) Gunn and Ben (Karley) Gunn; his cherished grandchildren, Evie, Luke, Amelia, Daniel, and Anna; his brother, John Gunn; and his spoiled dog, Dudley.

A funeral service will be held at 3 Circle Church, 10080 County Road 64, Daphne, AL 36526, on Wednesday, August 20, 2025. Visitation will begin at 10:00 a.m., followed by the service at 11:00 a.m. Graveside services will follow at Jubilee Memorial Cemetery.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the doctors, SICU nurses, and staff at Mobile Infirmary for their exceptional care and kindness.

Tim will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Funeral arrangements are by Hughes Funeral Home, 26209 Pollard Rd. Daphne, Alabama 36526.
