Alan E. Timchak Sr.
Loving husband, father, brother and grandfather
Alan E. Timchak Sr., "Timmy", passed away Monday, Sept. 30, 2019, at his home in Nutley, N.J.
Born June 4, 1940, to the late Louis and Agnes (Chismar) Timchak, he graduated Passaic High School in 1958 and proudly served in the United States Navy from 1959 to 1962.

They spent the next 42 years side by side, dedicated to each other and their family. Their happiest moments were spent gathered around the table, sharing a meal, and reminiscing about the good times.
