A family man from Tetney dies suddenly while on holiday, leaving behind a loving partner and two young children
Tetney: It’s just heartbreaking. Tim Todd, a devoted dad and partner, passed away unexpectedly at just 38. He was on a family holiday in Tenerife when he died in his sleep.
Tim left behind his partner Sophie and their two little ones, Albie and Elsie. Albie is just three, and Elsie is only six months old. It’s so tragic for them.
Sophie shared how Tim was the kind of guy who would do anything for anyone. They had been planning to propose on her 30th birthday. It’s just so sad that he didn’t get that chance.
Tim was a hands-on dad, always playing with Albie and spending time in the garden. Sophie said they were inseparable. And he was just starting to bond with baby Elsie, which makes it even harder.
His funeral was a testament to how loved he was, with 380 people attending. Sophie was amazed by the turnout. It really shows how much he meant to everyone.
They met at a wedding and hit it off right away. Tim was all about family, and they enjoyed many holidays together, exploring new places and enjoying sports.
In December, friends organized a charity event in his honor, raising £12,000 for the British Heart Foundation. They plan to keep it going every year.
Sophie still can’t believe he’s gone. Just hours before, they were swimming together. It’s hard to wrap her head around it. Tim was fit and healthy, and then everything changed in an instant.
She remembers his calm nature and how supportive he was. They were a great team, always lifting each other up. It’s a huge loss for her and the kids.
