He worked primarily in the food industry. His most recent jobs were at Market Basket in New Hampshire, which he enjoyed very much, and was just hired at the Price Chopper in Saratoga Springs. Tim was an avid Patriots and Red Sox fan who loved a good game of football and baseball. Tim spent many evenings singing karaoke and was a huge movie buff. He was known for having a movie quote to go with almost any situation. He recently developed a love for kayaking and boating in New Hampshire and absolutely loved trivia.
