Tim Spellings was born on January 30, 1954 in Huntingdon, Tennessee, the son of the late Bernard and Ruby Spellings.

Tim began duck hunting when he was younger, and it became a hobby he would continue throughout his life. When he became a father to his son, Drew, duck hunting became something they would enjoy doing together. Tim also enjoyed cooking and playing the guitar. He worked in real estate for over 35 years in the Hardin County area, most recently working with Wright Realty. Tim loved the Pickwick community and lake and was proud to call the area his home.

Tim Spellings departed this life on September 29, 2024 in Savannah, Tennessee at the age of 70 years, 7 months, and 30 days.

He is survived by his son, Drew Spellings and his wife Courtney of Arlington, Tennessee; grandchildren, Weston Spellings and Whitten Spellings; sister, Joyce Douglas of Jackson, Tennessee; nephew, Jason Hollowell (Amy) and their two children Callie Hollowell and Caroline Hollowell, all of Jackson, Tennessee; and niece, Jenny Hollowell (Lynne Farmer) of Memphis, Tennessee.
