It is with shattered hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Timmy on Monday, January 17, 2022 at the age 61. Beloved precious husband of Heather; the love of each other lives, soul mates, treasured friend, teenage sweet heart and prayer partner, his forever Honey, Heather.

Loving Father of Meghan Williamson (Justin), Lee Gamble (Natalie), Cody Gamble (Cassidy) and Emma Gamble. Proud Poppy of Maia and Erron. Cherished son of Reg and Donna Gamble and son-in-law of Marilyn and the late Norman MacIntyre. Dear brother of Dennis Gamble (Marilyn), Deanna Clark (Scott) and Lori Gamble; Dear brother-in-law of Wendy Bonenfant (Glen), Jan McMillian (late Steve), Patti Daugilis (Al) and Norm MacIntyre (Annie). Timmy will be fondly remembered and cherished by his many nieces and nephews for his tight bear hugs, unique and timely sense of humour. Forever missed and always remembered by all his family and many friends.

Timmy was an Echo Bay Boy to his core, often traveling with guitar in hand and cowboy boots on his feet, ready and willing to sing and play any song you asked of him, after hearing it only once. He had hundreds of songs logged in his memory. He especially lit up when singing with his daughter Emma, who is his song to his music, they shared this special bond. Everyone truly loved listening to his deep soothing voice and numerous church congregations were delighted to invite him to sing for our Lord Jesus.

A devoted Christian, who truly loved and embraced our Lord Jesus. In his quiet time he could be found reading the Holy Bible, several times from front to back. Often reading scriptures daily to his Honey.  He plead the Blood of Jesus over all those he Prayed for.

You could often find him working meticulously on any of his vehicles, cuddling his cat or hauling logs hundreds of miles. He spent many hours cleaning and maintaining his International. Many trips co-piloted by his children and beloved wife. His son Cody even had the pleasure of sharing this hard work, taking his Dad on his own trucking hauls, with his dad taking a turn as his co-pilot. He shared his pristine mechanical talents with his darling boys Lee and Cody, this ability shined through within his passions of classic cars and motorcycles, his career as a professional truck driver and business owner.

Timmy never hesitated to lend a listening ear, even those that seldom knew him felt comfort in his presence, due to his laughter and warmth. His song, mechanical talent, wit, good looks and dimples live on in his children, who he adored.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. And now the prize awaits me—the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing”.
2 Timothy 4: 7- 8
