With heavy hearts and profound sadness, we share the unexpected passing of Timothy James Stewart, who left this world far too soon on May 2, 2025. Timothy’s sudden departure has left his family and friends in deep shock and sorrow, grappling with the loss of a man whose presence was a source of light, warmth, and strength.
Born and raised with Midwestern values, Timothy was known throughout his community in Iowa for his unwavering kindness, generosity of spirit, and quiet strength. He was a friend to many, always ready to lend a helping hand or offer a kind word when it was most needed. Whether volunteering his time, supporting a neighbor, or simply being present in everyday life, Timothy made a lasting impression on all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Timothy had a gift for making people feel seen and valued. He carried himself with humility and treated everyone with dignity and respect. His laughter was contagious, his advice was wise, and his heart was open to all. In a world that often rushes by, Timothy was someone who made time for others. His absence leaves not just an empty space at the dinner table or in a church pew—but a deep and immeasurable void in the lives of those he touched.
The suddenness of his passing has created not only emotional pain but also practical challenges for his loved ones. Timothy’s family, who are currently out of state, are now facing the significant emotional and financial burden of traveling to Iowa to arrange his final farewell. In this time of immense grief, the added stress of funeral and travel expenses is overwhelming.
In the spirit of community that Timothy so deeply embodied, we are reaching out for support. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly toward helping his family manage the costs associated with honoring his life and memory. Your generosity will not only help ease their burden but will also be a powerful tribute to the love and compassion that Timothy shared so freely during his life.
We thank you for keeping Timothy and his family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time. May his soul rest in peace, and may we all find comfort in remembering the joy, love, and kindness he gave so generously.
