April 6, 1927 - July 30, 2021

Tim Yockey, age 94, passed away Friday, July 30, 2021, at Country Place Senior Living Center in Chanute, Kansas. Tim was born April 6, 1927, to Charles H. and Cora B (Hamill) Yockey in Chanute, Kansas. Tim served in the U.S. Army as medic and military police, 1945-1946, in Germany. On June 6, 1948, he married Faye (Norman) Yockey in Iola, Kansas. Tim lived a full life surrounded by family and friends. He helped his friends build garages and do home repairs on the strength of his handshake. His word was his bond.

Tim belonged to the Masonic Lodge for 60 years and was also a member of the American Legion and VFW. He and Faye were members of Humboldt United Methodist Church. Tim worked for the Monarch Cement Company, Humboldt, Kansas, for 42 years. In his later years, Tim expressed his love for animals by feeding the birds and keeping the bird bath clean. He delighted in the company of his dogs through the years as well. His grandsons loved him dearly. He and his cronies loved their morning coffee at H&H and solved the problems of the world daily. Tim is preceded in death by his parents, Charles H. Yockey and Cora B. (Hamill) Yockey; sisters Zelma Bailey, Doris Bockover, Jane Drake, Edith Drake, Mary Oneslager, Alice Thomas, Patty Yockey, and Sally Clark; brothers Gerald (Brov) Yockey, Dean Yockey, Robert Yockey, Charles F.
