Timothy L. "Tim" Douglas, age 53, passed away Tuesday, August 20, 2024 at his home in Sardis, MS. 

A celebration of Tim's life will be held at 12:00 Noon on Friday, August 23, 2024 at the Calvary Baptist Church in Batesville, MS. The family will receive friends beginning at 10:00 a.m. prior to the memorial service. 

Tim was born on September 6, 1970 in Wichita Falls, Texas to the late Tommy Lee and Shelia Hall Douglas. He was a member of Calvary Baptist Church and had recently attended Hollywood Baptist Church. 

Tim dedicated a significant portion of his life to serving the community and the state of Mississippi as a Mississippi State Trooper, a role he embraced with unwavering commitment for 27 years. His career exemplified dedication not only to law enforcement, but also to justice and truth, underscoring his character as an empathetic individual who worked tirelessly in his role as an investigator for the Mississippi Bureau of Investigations until his retirement. Tim was widely respected for his skills, earning a reputation as an excellent investigator, a reflection of his hard work and determination. 

Beyond his professional dedication, Tim loved his grandchildren. He also enjoyed the times he spent hunting and fishing, where many memories were made with friends and family. 

The family Tim leaves behind includes his two sons, Austin Douglas (Reed) of Monroe, LA, and Peyton Douglas (Madison) of Batesville, MS; his brother, Chris Douglas of Birmingham, AL; and four grandchildren, Jaxson Douglas, Evelynn Douglas, Mary Mason Douglas, and Thatcher Douglas.
