Timothy E. Curtis

Timothy Edward Curtis, 54, longtime resident of Superior, WI, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, Nov. 8, 2023, in his home.  He was born on Aug. 19, 1969, in Hancock, MI, the son of Max and Mary (Maloney) Curtis.

He married the love of his life, Aimee Larson, on Sept. 28, 2001, in Superior. They recently celebrated 22 wonderful years together.

Tim graduated from Hancock High School with the class of 1987. He was a dedicated Hancock Bulldog athlete and played baseball, football, and hockey. Many will joke that he was always the guy you wanted on your team and never the guy you wanted to play against. He went on to play hockey for the Sioux City Musketeers and UWS Yellowjackets. He worked for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.

Tim loved the outdoors. He enjoyed mowing his lawn, removing snow, and running a chain saw.  He loved hunting at the camp in Brule and golfing with buddies. Tim was incredibly passionate about youth hockey as both a coach and longtime Superior Amateur Hockey Association (SAHA) board member. He was proud to be called “coach” by hundreds of kids over dozens of years. He loved to tell stories, particularly if they were about growing up on Minnesota Street in Michigan. Tim was up for any and all shenanigans, had a big heart, was tough as nails and wore his hockey scar so well. He was an amazing father, husband, brother, and friend and will be missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife Aimee; daughter Isabel; sons Max and Jack; sister Tracy Neumeier; brothers Todd, Tyler, and Trevor Curtis; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents.

Visitation will be at 11:00 AM on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023, at Cathedral of Christ the King Catholic Church, 1410 Baxter Ave. in Superior, and will continue until the Mass of Christian Burial at 1:00 PM, with Fr. Anthony Yannom as celebrant.

The Lenroot-Maetzold Funeral Home, 1209 E. 5th St. in Superior, is assisting the family with arrangements. To leave condolences or sign a guestbook, please visit www.lenroot-maetzold.com.

Memorial gifts will be used for Isabel, Max, and Jack’s college educations.
