It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Timothy “Tuffy” Alan Holland, age 60, of Fayetteville, TN. Born on September 2, 1964, in Chattanooga, TN, Tim was the son of the late Timothy Alan Fuss and Linda Faye Combs. He passed away on November 9, 2024, at HH Lincoln Health in Fayetteville, TN.
Tim was a passionate sports fan, proudly supporting the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Tennessee Titans. He found joy in collecting Hot Wheels and RC cars, as well as football and baseball memorabilia—each item is a reflection of his love for life’s simple pleasures. Tim cherished the many trips he took with his dear friend Mitzi, making lasting memories along the way. Above all, he was a devoted “PawPaw,” fully enjoying every moment with his grandchildren. His playful spirit and youthful heart will always be remembered by those who had the privilege of knowing him.
Tim is survived by his daughter, Jaclyn (Matt) Headrick of Athens, AL; his cherished grandchildren, James, Timothy, Callie, and Blakely Headrick; his brothers, David Michael Combs (Kim Cox) of Maryville, TN, and Tony Lee (Kim) Gaddis of Lakeland, FL; close family friend, Mitzi Burnum; nephews, Ryan (Nikki) Seale and Caleb Alexander Combs; and niece, Lindsey Watkins.
A celebration of Tim’s life will be held at a later date.
Higgins Funeral Home is honored to serve the family of Timothy Alan Holland.
