Born on October 31, 1962, in Moline, Illinois, to Paul and Ollie Anderson Bush, Tim lived a full and vibrant life. For over forty years, he dedicated himself to his work at A.D. Huesing, Pepsi Co, where his commitment and integrity shone through. Tim was not only a talented artist who poured his heart into his drawings, but he was also a passionate outdoorsman who thrived in nature, enjoying fishing and hunting. A true sports enthusiast, Tim played softball, baseball, bags, darts, pool and bowled with unmatched zeal, becoming a legend among his friends for his countless tournament wins. His heart belonged to Chicago sports, with the Bears, Cubs, and Blackhawks holding a special place in his spirit. Tim's family was everything to him. He leaves behind his cherished children, Melissa (Tommy Gross) Bush of Rock Island, Illinois, and Chad (Katie) Townsend of Canton, Texas, along with his beloved grandchildren, Maci, Carter, and Aubrey. He is also survived by his sister, Jodi (Mike) Fuller of Moline, Illinois, and two nieces, Brittany and Cari, and a nephew, Josh. Tim was preceded in death by his parents and his brother, Ricky Daune Bush. Though Tim has left our world, his spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the American Cancer Society to honor Tim's memory.
