Timothy G. Ford
March 12, 1947 — February 12, 2023
TIMOTHY G. FORD
A resident of Boynton Beach, Florida passed away unexpectedly Sunday, February 12, 2023. Born and raised in Detroit, Tim lived in Michigan until he moved to Florida to care for his mother, Helen in 2017. Tim was active socially as a JCI Senate Lifetime Member, an active Kiwanian and recently, he joined the local VFW. He loved Michigan State and the Detroit Red Wings. Quick to strike up conversations about politics and the latest jokes, he could always be counted on for something funny to say. During his working career, he was a lifelong insurance agent, owning Modern Insurance Agency in Canton, Michigan and retiring after a number of years working at Michigan Community Insurance Agency in Wixom, Michigan. He had a profound love of the water and owned many boats throughout his lifetime.
Tim is survived by his two daughters, Carolyn Rushing of Belleville, Michigan and Erin Meadows of Canton, Michigan. In addition to his daughters, he was the extremely proud grandfather of Adam and Christopher Rushing and Kendall and Taylor Meadows. Tim was preceded in death by his father Henry Ford, his brother Joseph Ford and his mother, Helen Ford.
Cremation has taken place and Tim will be interred in Cadillac Memorial Gardens in Westland Michigan this summer.
