Timothy Forester Obituary

Publish in a newspaper

Timothy Elman Forester, 75, of Wichita Falls, passed away on August 15, 2025. He was born on July 12, 1950, to E.M. Forester and Betty Thom, who have both preceded him in death.

Tim was a proud graduate of S.H. Rider High School and Midwestern State University. He lived a full life defined by his love for the open road, his Harley, and his gift for working with his hands. He was a man whose presence left a mark. If you knew him-you knew him.

He is survived by his children, Jason Forester and wife Laura of Orange, TX; Heather Cooper and husband Ken of Iowa Park, TX; and Nathan Forester of Wichita Falls, TX. He was a proud Biker Pa to Matthew Cooper and wife Emily, Jacob, Elaina, Blake, Carson, and Logan, and a Great-Grand Biker Pa to Josie Cooper. He is also survived by his sisters, Curlette Hennard and husband Ken, and Vanessa Skinner, along with niece Katrina Skinner and her children.

Beyond his family, Tim was surrounded by countless dear friends who became family to him throughout his life. His bond with them was a cornerstone of his days, and their loyalty and love never wavered. A special acknowledgement goes to Justin Gearhart, who faithfully cared for Tim through the years-a testament to the strength of their friendship.

A graveside service honoring Tim's life will be held at Crestview Memorial Park on Wednesday, August 27, at 10:00AM.
