Timothy “Tim” Edward Hedrick, 59, of Warsaw, Mo. (resided in Excelsior Springs, Mo.) passed away surrounded by his family on Oct. 20, 2015.
Tim was born Oct. 15, 1956, in Warsaw, Mo., to Ed and Dorothy (Davis) Hedrick. He graduated from Warsaw High School in 1974. He was the co-owner of In and Out Auto Repair in Excelsior Springs, Mo.
Tim was a loving man who especially loved his grandchildren. He was well-known for his sarcastically funny and witty personality. He had a great sense of humor and making jokes was one of his best qualities. He was extremely hardworking and generous and often put others before himself. He would always do anything he could for others. He might not have admitted it, but he was also a wonderful cook. He enjoyed mechanics, fishing, and watching football and NASCAR. Some of Tim’s fondest memories during his life included his time at the Ray County Karters go-kart track and fishing in Canada with his father.
Tim is survived by daughter, Megan (Hedrick) Zeller; daughter, Rachael (Hedrick) Kreie; son, Dylan Hedrick; parents, Ed and Dorothy Hedrick; brother, Doug Hedrick; granddaughters, Caylie, Paizley and Lenox; and grandsons, Phoenix and Tysen.
