Timothy Andrew Stefurak, 45, of Seattle, WA, and formerly of Manchester, CT, passed away unexpectedly on January 8th, 2012 in Seattle. He was born in Hartford, Connecticut on July 15th, 1966, and was adopted in 1978 by Richard and Sharon Benedict of Layton, Utah.
Tim is survived by siblings Patrick and Susan Stefurak, niece Katherine and her son Elias, his adopted family Richard, Sharon, Donald, Debbie and Jay Benedict, and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
Tim worked as the manager of the Montlake 76 gas station in Seattle until 2010.
Tim loved the outdoors, camping, fishing, playing chess and reading. In the words of his favorite author Cormac McCarthy “…an uneasy peace has come over him, a strange kind of contentment.”
A private family placement of his ashes and memorial celebration will be held at a later time. Memories and condolences may be shared with his family on this online tribute.
