Bio: Tim was a native of New Zealand, but a recent United States Citizen. He held joint degrees in Religious Studies and Sociology, and was an accomplished musician, playing multiple instruments.
Tim recently joined the Harbor Department in May of 2014. However, he had served the City for the past five years as a Reserve Firefighter. In addition to his City family, Tim also enjoyed a close, extended family at ScubaLuv – home of the King Neptune – where he worked as a Dive Instructor, and was looked up to by all of his peers. He was a '2nd father' to Bob and Tina Kennedy’s children (Bob and Tina being the owners of ScubaLuv, of course). |
