Tim Fuentes passed away at his home in Columbia, Maryland on March 9, 2021.  Tim was born in Charleston, South Carolina on November 25, 1965; however he was raised in and around Crowley, Louisiana, which is where he called home.

Tim’s pride and joy were his family.  He was married to his wife, Barbara, for 35 years.  They were life partners since meeting in their teens and were rarely separated.   They were blessed with their children, Jared and Hayley and couldn’t be more proud.

Tim is survived by his wife, Barbara Fuentes (Ager), their son Jared and daughter Hayley; his brothers Manuel Fuentes and his wife Debbie of Lafayette, LA, Carlos Fuentes and his wife Amy of Eunice, LA,  Chris Fuentes of Baton Rouge, LA, many nieces and nephews, in-laws and friends.

Tim served in the United States Air Force, was a life member of the Burtonsville Volunteer Fire Department, and an HVAC Technician with Environmental Services Associates (ESA) in Columbia, MD.

Tim loved the outdoors, he mostly enjoyed hunting and fishing at every opportunity possible.  He enjoyed making sure every person who visited their home was well fed and loved making his famous gumbo for all to enjoy.  Tim was never more happy than being surrounded by friends and family.  He loved sharing memorable stories of get togethers and of course his hunting and fishing successes.
