Timothy Michael Burns, 57, of Exeter Township entered eternal rest unexpectedly on Sunday, April 16, 2023. Born in Norristown, PA on February 04, 1966 to Anna Gloria (Fragale) Burns and the late James Michael Burns Sr.
For 17 years, Timothy worked as a plant manager with Rahns Construction and previously worked at Berks Products. He also assisted Heck Bros. Florist with their deliveries.
Timothy was a man of several interests and embraced life with passion. He took up many hobbies including but not limited to: RC helicopters, RTR model cars, aviation, small engine repairs, rebuilding antique tractors, soldering, welding, car detailing, horseback riding and especially cooking. He seemed to succeed at anything he pursued and willingly imparted this knowledge to others, teaching his crafts to many. But his family were the grandest recipients of his learning and skill and they embraced many of his interests and made them their own.
Timothy was always deeply committed to making a comfortable life for his family, working hard to maintain his home and bring his family all the advantages he possibly could. From do-it-yourself building repair, to turning wrenches on the family cars, to landscaping and offering a helping hand whenever called upon, Timothy was always there to keep the lives of those around him up and running.
Timothy was an innovative, hardworking man with a heart of gold, who prioritized his family over everything else. Though Timothy is no longer with us in body, his spirit is eternal. The indomitable strength of his personality, sense of humor and his immense capacity for knowledge and understanding, coupled with genuine humility and kindness, are rare qualities to see in a single person. He will be sorely missed by all blessed enough to have known him.
Timothy's spirit will be carried on by his mother Anna Gloria (Fragale) Burns; his beloved wife, Donna (Krott) Burns; his daughter Angelina Burns; his 2 stepchildren Justin and Kristina Green; his son Timothy Jr.; his daughter Danielle; his 3 sisters Cynthia Rost and her husband Carl, Kelly Anne Tornetta and Suzanne Januzelli and her husband Lenny and his brother Michael Joseph Burns. He also leaves behind 4 grandchildren Haylie Nicole Green, Riley Christine Green, Maximus Enzo Sangiovanny and Zoey Mae Sangiovanny to cherish his memory.
In addition to his father James, Timothy was preceded in death by his brother Jamie M. Burns Jr..
The family will greet relatives and friends on Saturday, April 22, 2023 from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM at Auman's Inc., 390 W. Neversink Rd., Reading, PA 19606, followed by a celebration of life service promptly commencing at 4:30 PM, with celebrant Sheryl Manzella officiating.
