366. Tim Kirk

Timothy is a 56-year-old father and husband of a growing family of 11. Tim has spent most of his 56 years on this earth living beyond himself, for others. The time he has had here has been used to share the gifts and seeds of passion in his heart, to be a strong leader. Tim is the kind of leader that has poured his value system of integrity and grit, not only into his family but also into the young people of his community.  Tim sees values and strengths in everyone and helps them realize their potential.  As a public school teacher, and as their school’s head football coach, Tim has given the kids of this community the tools for success. He was diagnosed with stage 4 gallbladder cancer just this past August. His wife was originally hoping for a trip somewhere warm since they are from cold Duluth, Minnesota, but as his cancer made him more fatigued, they decided they would rather have a staycation with their family all in Duluth. Their children are adults so it is more challenging to stay connected so his wife wished for Stella’s Wish to help them with the financial burden of lodging and food so that Tim can relieve the gift of precious time with his family.

Stella’s Wish provided Tim and his family with the means to spend 3 nights at the Suites Hotel at Water Front Plaza in Duluth, Minnesota.
