Timothy Scott Martin

July 24, 2021

Timothy Scott Martin was born on October 10, 1966. Our world sadly lost a monumental man, at the age of 55 on July 15th. He passed away in his own home in Pensacola, FL, the same city he was born and grew up in. He graduated high school at Pine Forest High, and then went on to do two years of college.

He always loved science and the science fiction, history, and military history. He was part of his chemistry club in high school and would get access to the chemicals to do all sorts of “experiments” such as melting an entire speed bump at Pine Forest.

Timothy married Tammy Killam in the year 2000, Timothy was 34 and Tammy was 36. She already had three kids from another marriage, but Tim lovingly took them in as if they were his own. Singing Ben Folds or ELO or Jimmy Buffet to the kids at night or reading stories to the children and setting their minds alight with imagination.

Timothy worked for Solutia and then Ascend in his final years. But he has worn many hats, from being in the reserves in the military, to owning his own tech business that loaned people technology or software to use. Timothy was a massive fan of movies and music. More recently the Marvel line of movies and shows were his favorite. He always taught the kids about music, whether it was a new artist or how an artist started a whole wave of music. Timothy is a very intelligent and kind person.

He lost his wife Tammy Martin on March 19, 2021. But that did not stop him from being just as strong as he was with her. He changed and became more caring, and open about himself and his emotions. Timothy is like no other. He is truly one of a kind. Our simple human dialect lacks the words it takes to truly describe Timothy Scott Martin. But the best way to say it is pure love. He always put others before himself, his selflessness and want to help is beyond any person most know. He is wise and could always help, or maybe he would trick you enough to think he knew what he’s talking about! Timothy knows how to make people smile even if he did not know you. He will forever be missed and remembered by all that know him. We love you, Timothy.
