Timothy “Timmy, Timbo” Mark Tyson Jr., 27 passed away suddenly on Wednesday in Florida.

Born in Scranton, he was the son of Timothy M. and Michele Krenitsky Tyson of Browndale. Tim was a graduate of Forest City Regional High School in 2009. He received two degrees in electrical occupational and renewable energy from the Pennsylvania College of Technology in 2013. Tim was employed at Coral Electric in Boynton Beach, FL.

Timmy was truly a jack of all trades. He could fix and make anything with his own two hands. He loved drawing, fishing, hunting, skateboarding, working out, listening to music, the Pittsburg Penguins, and the great outdoors. He had the biggest heart. He always put everyone before himself and truly loved his family, his girlfriend and his dog, Knuckles.  If he could he would adopt every animal he came across.

Tim is also survived by his sister Tiffany and her husband Ryan Kulp, West Orange, NJ., his companion, Amanda Kwedar, Arnold, MD., his maternal grandmother, Rita Krenitsky, Simpson, his paternal grandmother, Dorothy Tyson, Forest City, and many aunts, uncles and cousins.

A Memorial Service will be held on Sunday at 3:00 Pm in the Joseph W. Scotchlas Funeral Home, Inc. 621 Main St., Simpson. The family will receive guests at the funeral home from 1:00 to 3:00 PM.
