Tim Hannifin, born on June 5th, 1934, to Brennan and Gertrude Hannifin, peacefully passed away June 18, 2024. Growing up in Eureka, Utah alongside his sister Gertrude Ann, Tim cherished the memories of winters in the town and summers spent at their ranch house near Eureka Cemetery.

Tim is survived by his loving wife Lorna, his sons Tim and J.B (Kristi) Hannifin, as well as nine grandchildren and six great-grandchildren who brought him immense joy. He was preceded in death by his parents, a sister Gertrude Ann, and his daughter Margaret Ann and a great grandson, Owen Flowers.
