Tim Wayne Bauer

August 2, 2022 by Editor

August 6, 1967-Dec. 15, 2020 

Taken from us too soon but never forgotten. Tim entered into rest on Dec. 15, 2020 at his home in Columbia Falls where he had resided since 2002.

Tim was born in Santa Cruz, CA on August 6, 1967. He moved with his parents and siblings to Montana when he was five years old. Tim graduated from Stevensville High School in 1985. Tim was a Master Carpenter. He could build anything. He loved teaching anyone that wanted to learn the trade. He built many homes and commercial buildings in the Flathead along with Missoula and Ravalli counties.

Tim is survived by his three beautiful daughters, Sierra Hankinson (Tyler), Casey Bauer (Mike), and Sophie Bauer; his parents, Karen Moore (Buck) and Tom Bauer (Connie); his brother, Bob Bauer (Martha), and his sister, Debbie Johnson (Frank); grandson Knox Hankinson; nephews, Trevor Johnson and Mathew Bauer and niece, Taylor Johnson; grandmother Mabel Baker and many aunts, uncles and cousins. Tim is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Jay Baker and Jerry Bauer, grandmother Wanda Thomas and his cousin, Joe McGregor.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions lifted, we will have a Celebration of Life on Tim’s 55th birthday on Saturday, Aug. 6th. It will be held at his sister and brother-in-law’s home at 3325 Upper Burnt Fork School Rd. The celebration starts at 3:00 p.m. There will be a barbecue. BYOB and bring your chairs and stories about growing up with Tim.
