Timothy Dowling Obituary

Although he started his career as a pharmacist, his second career as a sales executive took him to Pennsylvania, Illinois, Maryland, Arizona, and Cincinnati, Ohio. Tim never met a stranger. He had a gift for connecting with people and always asked questions. He enjoyed learning through reading and watching educational television.
Tim is survived by his wife of 50 years, Brenda Pearson Dowling; three sons, Dr. Ashley (Annie) Dowling, Bennett, and Colin Dowling; and three grandchildren, Pearson, Calder, and Drayton Dowling. Also surviving are his brothers, Dr. Patrick (Anne) Dowling and Matthew (Carla) Dowling; sisters, Joan (Rik) Lewis and Susan (Jeff) Beasecker; brother-in-law, Marvin (Vicki) Pearson; special great-niece, Annabelle Beasecker, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
A celebration of life for Tim will be held at a later date. Donations can be made to the National Geographic Society or to the Alzheimer's Association. Arrangements have been entrusted to Witzler-Shank Walker Funeral Home, Perrysburg, (419) 874-3133. Condolences may be left to the family online at

Tim Dowling was a terrific role model for anyone who would want a life well lived. I felt that it was a privilege to have known him as the eldest of Dowling siblings. Certainly he at peace, with his Creator. May I extend my deepest sympathy to all the terrific Dowling family.
