Prayers & help for Tim McMahon’s wife and family

It brings me much sadness to announce the passing of the Legendary Taxidermist we all know, Tim McMahon. He was a great friend to all. Anyone who has met Tim, has left knowing they had a friend for life. He was a chatter box, loved having long conversations, whether it be simply about the weather, hunting, game camera pictures, politics, you name it, he would talk about it. Most of us know Tim because of the work he did. He is the best taxidermist in the field! He is a true legend. It might have taken him a while to complete the job, but when the job was completed, it was done perfectly. He has a true eye for the art and detail that taxidermy requires. He will be missed terribly!

I created this GoFundMe page on behalf of Tim’s family- his wife Wendy, daughter Samantha, son Kevin, & step-sons Hayden, Chandler, and Blake. Tim and Wendy have been together for 2 decades, raising their children together from a very young age. Prayers are greatly needed. I’m asking that you pray for this wonderful family. Pray for the strength to heal, & pray for the long road ahead. Unfortunately with the passing of Tim, a beloved friend, father, and husand; Life Insurance is not an option, leaving Wendy to continue on with life as a single income household. Wendy is a very talented hairstylist, the best! But unfortunately, that doesn’t pay enough to catch up on past due bills, future bills, and the funeral our wonderful friend Tim deserves. If you could find it in your heart to donate what you can, to help Wendy get on her feet, with a little to spare until she finds herself in a good place to make it work on her own, it would be such a blessing. Wendy and the children are going through a lot right now with the tragic unexpected passing of Tim, anything to help make this tragedy a little less stressful would be so appreciated. The family is suffering enough, finances only make things worse in a time like this. Thank you, and know that whatever is donated goes directly to Wendy, who will be extremely appreciative for the blessing.

I also would like for everyone to know, that I will be having part in the distribution of everyone’s animals. I personally understand most of the animals sent to Tim are once in a lifetime harvests. I understand how important each animal means to all of you. Tim & his families close friend, Kent Stryker, will also be working hand and hand with Wendy in distributing and finishing unfinished mounts in Tim’s honor. He is a wonderful taxidermist who has been doing this for countless years, and who has a great deal of experience. For those who have sent Tim work, have done so because they know how much detail and time he puts into each animal, and Kent is able to offer the same respect, and detail into each your mounts. I ask that each of you are patient, as this is a tragic time for the family, and have the understanding that things like this will take some time. I also ask that you please don’t burden the family with this, as they have enough going on right now, and simply don’t need the added stress.

Thank you all so very much for your prayers and blessings ❤️
