Timothy Myrle Husz, one of six children of Edna Margaret (Pedersen) Husz and Marvin Waldo Husz, was born on June 13, 1956 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Tim grew up in Carson, Iowa where he graduated from the Carson High School in 1974. Following school, Tim worked at Oakland Packing Plant for a short time and then put his carpentry skills to use as the maintenance man at a large apartment complex in De Kalb, Illinois.
In 1988, Tim began working with his brother Butch and loved operating heavy machinery and building terraces. He always kept the shop neat and tidy, was very organized, and enjoyed working with his brother. In 2004, Tim began work for Pottawattamie County Secondary Roads where he drove a maintainer for the east end of the county.
Tim enjoyed woodworking and was considered to be quite a handyman. He loved all animals and as a boy, would always take in rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, or any other animal that wandered by. He was known by the family as the "Grill Master" and enjoyed barbecuing and preparing meals for his family and friends. Tim's children were his life and he enjoyed spending time with them.
Tim died at his Carson home on August 25, 2008 at the age of 52 years, 2 months, and 12 days. He was preceded in death by his parents; infant brother; nephew Wendell Jefferis; and brother-in-law James Jefferis.
