Timothy William Thomas Behrs

Tim enjoyed riding dirt bikes, youth baseball and surfing, making home movies with his brother, Jonathan, and friends. Tim was musically inclined, he liked to play guitar, drums, and violin. He played Amazing Grace on the guitar using a synthesizer at his grandfather’s (Arthur Behrs) funeral service in 2001. He played it beautifully, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. Timmy was a member at the Double Punches Boxing Club in Santa Rosa.

He leaves behind his parents, Janis and Tom, brother Jonathan, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.

Tim asked the Lord Jesus to come into his life at 23. After that, he enjoyed attending New Hope Baptist in SR for many years with Pastor Dr. Arthur Maricle, Brother Parker, and Brother J.S. He loved worshiping and singing praises to the Lord.

Tim was a kind and gentle son taken to heaven where he will not need to suffer from cancer any longer.

My beloved Timothy, you’ve enriched our lives. We’ll miss you forever, till we meet again.

Timothy is laid to rest at Cypress Hill in the ALL Saints Section in Petaluma.
