Timothy Eller Obituary

TIMOTHY A. ELLER, 46, of Barboursville, WV, formerly of Hernshaw, WV, passed away October 7, 2025, with his family surrounding him after battling a long illness.
Timmy is preceded in death by his father George Eller and grandparents, George Eller Sr., Jimmy Holstein and Harlan Key.
Timmy was a member of Barboursville Church of Christ. He loved and adored his church family.
Timmy was definitely known for his love of video games. He was the true definition of a Video Gamer. But he loved and cherished something much more than that, his daughter. She was the light of his life and will always be his babygirl.
Those left to cherish his memories: his daughter, Mahkailia Eller of South Charleston, WV; his best friend and love, fiancé, Nikki Honaker of Barboursville, WV; mother and stepfather, Patricia and Jimmy Hollis of Mt. Juliet, TN; grandparents, Linda Key of Summersville, WV and Carol Holstein of Hernshaw, WV; sisters, Carolyn Patterson (Chad), Kayla Butler of Chloe, WV, Christy Hyman (Darius) and Stacey Hollis of Mt. Juliet, TN; brother, Ricky Holstein of Dunbar, WV; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends who will also cherish his memory.
Knowing how he helped others, Mahkailia and Nikki decided to continue his legacy and donate his tissue to help others in the area.
Celebration of Life will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, October 18, 2025 at Barboursville Church of Christ, 1120 McClung Avenue, Barboursville. Visitation will be from 1 to 2 p.m. prior to the service.
