Timothy J. Krisch
Timothy J. Krisch, 49 of Villa Park, Illinois passed away suddenly on October 23, 2026; loving
son of Susan L. Krisch (Schaefer), youngest brother of Sandra (Ryan) Carpenter and Michael
(Karen) Krisch; the king of uncles of Kaylie (Josh) Krisch, Madison (Joe) Wilds, Jacob (Sarah)
Carpenter, Asher (Charlie) Krisch and Maxwell Carpenter and too many friends to list who are
his extended family.
While Tim was a 3rd generation land surveyor who excelled in his profession, it was not the
thing that defined him nor what people remember most about him. His never-ending
expansive generous heart, always present, never hesitant “YES, what do you need?” to
anything anyone needed, quick sarcastic humor, booming contagious laugh that filled the room
and passion for the Chicago Bears are just a few of many ways Tim is remembered. Tim had a
soft heart and deep love for animals, especially dogs. He lived his entire life with a canine
companion from the day he was born. His current companion Smokey exudes unconditional
love loudly in the same abundance that Tim did quietly.
What Tim enjoyed most in life were what many people consider simple things; being with
those he loved, hanging out at a friend’s house for pizza, watching youtube videos to improve
his golf swing, fishing trips with his friends, relaxing in his pool after a long hot day at work,
watching sports on his tv at Tiki Tim’s, and snuggling with Smokey. These were the joys of
Tim’s life and those who were part of these experiences are forever blessed to have been there
with him.
Tim is preceded in death by his father, Timothy J. Krisch, both his maternal and paternal
grandparents and his beloved canine companions Kane and Bandit.
In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to the DuPage County Animal Services.
A Celebration of Tim’s life will be held Sunday November 1, 2026 from 1-4 P.M. at Miller’s Ale House 455 E. Butterfield Rd., Lombard IL 60148 (casual attire)
