Tim Killoren, former PCCA chairman, dies at 69
(UC) — Timothy Donald Killoren, former PCCA Chairman and longtime board member, died on June 6 at the age of 69, the organization shared in a statement.
He served as president of Poygan Land Company and president of the Power and Communication Contractors Association 2015-16. He was a member of St. Mary Parish in Pickerel.
Tim married Nancy Grassl, his high school sweetheart, and they celebrated their 46th wedding anniversary on May 8. He was a loving and devoted father to Kenny (deceased) and Laura. He was a great brother and a fun and caring uncle.
Tim was the son of Don and Carol Killoren. He grew up in Appleton and graduated from Xavier High School in 1971. He then went to work for the family business, Killoren Company, with his father and brothers. In 1986, he began his own utility construction company, K&S Construction Inc., with partner Roger Stevens. Later in life he became a consultant in the utility construction industry and enjoyed sharing his knowledge with colleagues.
Tim’s family brought him the greatest joy. He also enjoyed spending time with friends and family, especially the many years hunting at deer camp in Pelican Lake and his annual fishing trips to Canada. Other favorite pastimes include racing, auto mechanics and traveling.
Tim was surrounded by a great team of health care providers. He and his family appreciated the professional, compassionate, and kind care of Dr. Guenther and team at Fox Valley Hematology & Oncology; Dr. Yao, Molly and the rest of the cancer team at ThedaCare; Dr. Hari and Dr. Dhakal and team at Froedtert Hospital; Dr. Nichols and team at Mayo Clinic; and the Compassus Hospice team.
“Tim’s determination to battle many health challenges was an inspiration to all who knew him. He was a proud and tough Irishman,” the family wrote in his obituary.
A memorial Mass will be held on Saturday, June 11, at St. Mary Catholic Church in Pickerel, Wis. Visitation will be Friday from 4-7 p.m. at the Bradley Funeral Home with a parish wake service at 6 p.m. Visitation will also be held Saturday at the church from 9:30 a.m. until the time of Mass.
The family says that a memorial fund in Tim's name will be established.
