Timothy Gaskin, of Cherry Hill, passed away after a long and courageous battle.
Tim was the beloved husband of Sheera Gaskin. Together, they shared over 21 years filled with love, partnership, and unwavering devotion. He loved Sheera deeply and completely, and their bond was the foundation of his life. He was a devoted father to his son, Elijah, who meant the absolute world to him. He is also survived by his mother-in-law, Shelley Kaplan, and his father-in-law, Michael Dashkow.
Tim was an incredibly talented artist with a lifelong passion for creativity. He attended the Creative and Performing Arts High School in Philadelphia on scholarship, where he developed his artistic talents. He had a deep love for Marvel comics and was an avid collector who enjoyed building figurines, bringing characters to life through his work and imagination.
He later dedicated his career to Camden County, where he worked as a light equipment operator until his retirement, taking pride in his work and the role he played in supporting his community.
Above all else, Tim loved his family beyond words. He cherished every moment with Elijah, especially playing sports together, sharing laughter, and creating lasting memories. He also had a special place in his heart for the many animals who were part of their family over the years.
Tim will be remembered for his creativity, his strength, his kindness, and most of all, his deep and unwavering love for his family. His love, especially for Sheera and Elijah, will remain a lasting part of all who knew him.
