Timothy Lyle Sheats

Timothy Lyle Sheats of Dallas, Ga. passed away on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 at the age of 47.

Born on August 9th, 1978 in Marietta, Ga. He is survived by his parents, Dan and Sandy Sheats, Brother Daniel Sheats Jr. and his wife Kimberly, and Sister Pamela Austin. Along with nephews Avery and Mason Self, Andrew Paredes, and niece Anna Self.

Tim attended McEachern High School in Powder Springs, where he played second base for the baseball team. Even at a young age, you could always find him outside practicing with his brother or throwing the ball against the wall by himself. Baseball may have been his first love, but music soon devoured every spare hour. Following in his dad's footsteps, Tim began playing the drums. While in school and still playing baseball, Tim met fellow musicians and together they formed a band. Though not as frequently, Tim still played the drums up until his passing.

Aside from a short time in Raleigh, NC., Tim spent most of his life in Dallas, Ga. where he attended the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses. There he formed many lasting friendships.

A memorial service and celebration of his life will be held at 11am, with family visitation starting at 10am, on Saturday, November 1st, 2025 at West Cobb Funeral Home, located at 2480 Macland Road, Marietta, Ga. 30064.
