Timothy P. May of Jasper, GA, tragically left this world on May 7, 2022. Born February 7, 1985, Tim was loved by all he met and had a charm and charisma that most can only dream of possessing.

The son of an Air Force Master Sergeant, Tim spent his childhood at Charleston Air Force Base, SC. He loved playing in the ocean and at the lake with his siblings and enjoyed many little league games and swim team events. He was a natural at the butterfly stroke. In 2002 Tim moved with his family to Southern Pines, NC. He attended Pinecrest High School where he swam and wrestled competitively. He also served proudly as part of Pinecrest Air Force JROTC, graduating in 2004 as the NC-43 cadet group commander. As a young man, Tim grew up in church and accepted Jesus as his Savior, which gives his grieving parents great comfort as they move forward in this life without him.

Tim entered the United States Marine Corps in 2004, serving proudly in multiple combat deployments to the Middle East as part of the Global War on Terror, and achieved the rank of Sergeant. Upon separating from the Marines, he learned the beautiful art of farming on his Georgia property, selling the bounty of his hard work at the Jasper Farmer's Market. He was also involved with HERO Agriculture, a non-profit helping military veterans gain renewed purpose through farming.

Tim loved helping people and was a stranger to no one. He always extended a kind word or helping hand, fostering easy friendships with those who met and came to love him.

The son of Jim and Lynn May of Southern Pines, NC, he leaves behind to cherish his memory his beloved wife Apryl and two daughters, McKynzie and Rylee. He is survived by his brother, Matt, and two adoring sisters, Briana and Megan, along with four nephews and four nieces; and by his two grandmothers, Evelyn May and Anita Stuart. Tim also leaves behind an entire USMC family whom he treasured, and many friends he admired.
