T.J. was a 2007 graduate of North Marion High School, where he enjoyed his years performing in bother the band and noteables. Everyone who knew T.J. loved him. He was hilarious, dramatic, and unreserved. T.J. was a friend to all. Everyone enjoyed his infectious personality.

T.J. spent most of his adult life working in the food industry, most recently, managing at Zaxby's in Winchester, VA. T.J. enjoyed playing tennis, cards, board games, and watch any Netflix series that involved witches.

T.J. had plenty of great years with too many friends to name. Although, in recent years, he also had his fair share of hardships. T.J. struggled with addiction. He fought very hard for his sobriety with support from his family and friends, but, ultimately, he could not bear the disease. T.J. leaves behind family and friends who wish they could have done more. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to a local recovery and addiction facility in T.J.'s name, so we can bear this dreaded disease.
