Tim was born in Amarillo, Texas. He was a graduate of Caprock High School and attended Amarillo College. He was a manager who worked for numerous locations in Amarillo including Cash America, Ruby Tequilas, Texas Firehouse, and most recently, Georgia Street Taphouse. Tim was one of the most caring, selfless men anyone could encounter and would have given you the shirt off of his back if you needed it. All he wanted in life was to make sure his family was happy and taken care of. He left behind a legacy of memories with not only his family but his closest friends. ‘Tim’, ‘Timmy’, ‘Tim-bo’, he was known by so many people who knew him so well and just enjoyed his presence. He will truly be missed.

Tim is preceded in death by his grandparents, Josie and Margarito Lucero, Francisco H. Mendez, and Maria Garcia Mendez, three uncles, Eddie Lucero, Jr. Lucero, and Roger Lucero, and cousin, Sarah Salinas.
