Timothy "Tim" E. Huff

Timothy E. Huff, age 60, passed away peacefully on Friday, October 25, 2024. He was taken too soon after a brave battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his loving family and beloved pup, Whiskey, as he proclaimed “alright, let’s go!” in true Tim fashion. All that knew him will feel his loss forever. Private family services will be held at a later date.

Tim was born in Morton, MS to the late Elbert Leslie Huff and Abby Ruth Baynes Huff. He graduated as Salutatorian at Raleigh High School in 1982. After meeting his love and future wife and solidifying himself as a lifelong Dawgs fan, he graduated from Mississippi State University “Class of 1990.” He made a living as an electrical engineer for 34 years. He proudly served in the Army National guard for 22 years, retiring at the rank of Major in 2004. Tim’s favorite ways to spend time were hunting, fishing, racking up the miles walking his dog and boating on the river with his family. In Tim’s eyes, the perfect day would end sitting around a campfire at his family campground, surrounded by loved ones discussing past memories and sharing a meal of southern comfort. 

He was preceded in death by his parents and infant sister, Vera Ann Huff.

Tim is survived by his wife of nearly 37 years, Tammy Fitzpatrick Huff; daughter, Dr. Katherine Huff Barton (Sean) and his unborn grandson whom he is now keeping safe; son, Jonathan “Jack” Huff (Kendal); sister, Tammy Sue Munn (Pete); niece, Amber Munn and great-nephew, Janson; nephew, Tanner Munn (Jessica) and great-niece, Abby Kate; brother-in-law, Jeff FitzPatrick and nephew, Dakota.
