IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Timothy
Norman
October 13, 1959 – July 23, 2025
Timothy O. Norman, affectionately known as Tim, age 65, departed this life on July 23, 2025, after a courageous battle with COPD. Despite his health challenges, Tim remained joyful and full of life, always quick with a clever remark that could bring a smile to anyone's face.
Born on October 13, 1959, in Lexington, North Carolina, Tim was the beloved son of Barbara Norman Brooks and Charlie Harris. He attended Lexington City Schools and later pursued his passion for cooking at a culinary school in California. Tim's love for food and people led him to a successful career in restaurant management, where he worked at various establishments, including Hardee's and CJ Soul Food.
Tim spent over 28 years in California, making lasting memories and friendships, before returning home to Lexington to be closer to family.
He was preceded in death by his father, his cherished grandmother Bernice Norman, and his beloved big brother Rodney Dean Norman.
Tim leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and resilience. He is survived by his devoted mother, Barbara Norman Brooks; brothers Jeffrey Simmons, Tony Norman, Deneal (Lynn) McNair, Terry Martin, and David Harris; sisters Denise (Leon) Woodberry, Cassandra Harris Black, Carla Harris, and Rita McPhatter; beloved aunts Janie Nichols and Mae Ruth Edwards; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends who will continue to cherish his memory.
A celebration of life will be held on Friday at 3:00 p.m. at Roberts Funeral Service, with family visitation beginning at 2:30 p.m. Burial will follow at Lexington City Cemetery.
