GEORGE TIMMONS
August 10, 1926 - March 8, 2021
George has always lived a life of exemplary service and taught his family the importance of serving others. George served in the Navy during World War II and he and his wife were both Peace Corps volunteers in the Philippines. They also dedicated much time and service to Huntington’s Disease research and aid and personally hosted retreats for families impacted by the disease in Prescott. For many years, George was a real estate developer in the Phoenix area, and provided affordable homes and self financed loans to struggling families. His subdivision became affectionately known by the residents as Timmons Village. In his retired years, George was an active Big Brother in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program in Prescott and helped numerous 'Littles' with reading proficiency. He was a friend to all and loved by so many. George is survived by his three children, Jill, Gregg and Gary, as well as eight grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. A memorial service will be held 10 a.m. Saturday, March 13, 2021, at the Sunrise Funeral Home, 8167 E Hwy 69 Prescott Valley, AZ 86314.
