Timothy Aaron Burgess
1991-2021
Burgess, Timothy Aaron
October 28, 1991 ~ January 30, 2021
It is with deepest sympathy that we announce the sudden
passing of Timothy Aaron Burgess (aka Borghese), at home, on Saturday,
January 30, 2021 at the age of 29 years. Cherished son of
Richard and Janet Burgess (nee LeBlanc). Loved brother of
Vincent and Mitchell Burgess and their families. Much loved
nephew of Jane Morrison, Judy LeBlanc, Joe LeBlanc (Dana), Jeannette
Stephan (George), Josephine LeBlanc (Brian), Vangie Morrison and Butch
Burgess (Carol). He will be cherished and never forgotten by
many cousins. Predeceased by his grandparents Joseph and
Greta LeBlanc, Harvey and Carrie Burgess and by his uncle Timothy
Burgess.
Timmy was born October 28, 1991 in Guelph, Ontario.
He worked at Independent Paper. He had a way of lighting up
the room with his contagious smile and making a lasting impression on
people within minutes of meeting him. The things he did to
make people laugh will continue to do so for years to come as those
who loved him look back at many amazing memories. Timmy was
an excellent accordion player just like his poppy. We take
comfort knowing that he is now resting with his grandparents whom he
missed dearly. We like to think that he is somewhere playing
a tune and having a shot of whiskey with his poppy.
He was an avid Juventus and Italy soccer fan and cheered for
the Ottawa Senators and Minnesota Vikings. He was also a
proud leader and coach of a hockey team. His friends would
describe him as the ‘glue of the group’ that held
them together. He was the rock they could always lean on
whenever they needed support to cope with any issues they were
facing. Coach Tim aka “The Legend” will be dearly
missed by Micheal DiPaolo, Antony “Tonino” Galluccio, John
Garaffa, Orazio Peluso and many other great friends. Til you
all meet again in the “Back Of A Cab”. We love you
Timmy, you will never be forgotten, you will be here forever in our
hearts.
