It was during this time that he married his high school sweetheart, Amber Graves. They stayed in Stephenville for several years where he worked at Tarleton and later at Stephenville ISD. Tim moved his family back to Huntsville in 2004 to join Huntsville ISD where he served multiple roles before cancer led him to early retirement.
