Obituary for Timothy E. "Tim" Haynes

Timothy E. “Tim” Haynes, age 61, of Lula, passed away peacefully to be with the Lord on Saturday, January 15, 2022.

Born on October 18, 1960, in Gainesville, he was the son of Kathryn Murray Haynes of Lula and the late Artis Roland Haynes. He enjoyed hunting, gardening and riding his Harley. Mr. Haynes worked on the family farm where he enjoyed the outdoors, working with his tractor, and teaching his daughter about the trade. He was a hard worker, who enjoyed helping others with projects, especially difficult ones. He was ingenious, sometimes drawing and fabricating hard to find parts for some of those projects. Mr. Haynes especially loved his family: was a wonderful and supportive son and grandson who enjoyed hearing about days gone by; a loving father to his daughter whom he encouraged in her endeavors as a veterinary assistant; a beloved brother who enjoyed nothing better than giving his sisters a hard time. He was especially fond of his Miniature Schnauzer, Odie.

In addition to his mother, Mr. Haynes is also survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Sydney Haynes Jackson (Kyle) of Cornelia, and first grandchild on the way; sister and brother-in-law, Myra Roberts (Dwayne), niece and husband, Lauren Gaddis (Scott) all of Lula; sister and brother-in-law, Amy Keebaugh (Roger), nephew, Roger Lee Keebaugh, III and niece, Sarah Keebaugh all of Alto; numerous other extended relatives and friends.

Funeral services are scheduled for 2:00 pm on Thursday, January 20, 2022, in the Chapel of McGahee-Griffin & Stewart with Dr. Michael Haynes and Rev. Carroll Griffin officiating. Interment will follow in Westview Cemetery in Lula.

The family will receive friends from 12-8 pm on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, and from 10 am until the service hour on Thursday, at the funeral home.
