Timothy True Gobel's Obituary
Timothy True Gobel, age 88, was doing his usual on July 23, 2009. He was working on his farm and taking care of his family. That was the last time he would do so, as his life was ended in an accident on that farm he lovingly attended everyday.
He is survived by his Wife: Millie; Daughter: Linda Miller; Son: Rick Gobel; Daughter: Arlyce Perkins; Daughter: Kathi Gobel; 4 Brothers: Nile, Ronald, Leon and Ned Gobel; 1 Sister: Audrey Sutton; 15 grandchildren; 9 great grandchildren
He was born in Grafton, NE on September 7, 1920 to Roy & Frances Kolllars Gobel. He married Millie Bonertz in 1944 and moved to Scappoose to stay in 1954. In his 55 years in Scappoose he has spread love and service to many. His 30 years of work for the Halton Tractor Company ended in 1986 with a barn dance on his farm. Timothy loved to laugh and play with people. He was the sunshine in many peoples lives and his light will not dwindle. Perhaps the boys will be able to win more billiard games now that he is playing in heaven.
We love you husband, father, grandfather and loyal friend! God bless your soul.
