Timmy Lee Maness' Obituary
On Monday, February 26 at 1:16 pm Timmy "Tim" Maness left his earthly home to start his pain free life in Heaven. He passed peacefully at home with his wife beside him after a long heroic battle with cancer.
Although the company have changed over the years he worked at the same job for 42 years. He was an inspector/maintenance mechanic at AITX. His work ethic, determination and drive was something many admired.
He loved working out, fun in the sun, traveling, riding his Harley, his wife, children, grandchildren and many friends.

Tim had 15 grandchildren and 1 great grandson and tons of memories to cherish.
