Bushey

Timothy Loren Bushey of Anacortes, Washington, passed away on June 26, 2026, at the age of 78. He was born on January 9,1948, in Anacortes, to Loren and Mildred Bushey.

Tim and Victoria Brennan met in high school, married in 1968, and had two sons, Timothy J. (TJ) and Shawn Bushey.

Raised in Anacortes, Tim developed a lifelong passion for the outdoors. He spent countless hours fishing, clamming, and duck hunting alongside his father and older brother, creating memories that stayed with him throughout his life. For several years, he lived and worked in Alaska, where he discovered his “happy place”. He found joy in the renowned fishing, abundance of seafood, serenity of the outdoors, and the laid-back way of life he loved.

In the final six months of his life, Tim resided at Rosario Assisted Living. He brought life and humor to his fellow residents and the staff alike, and enjoyed the friendships he formed. His son, TJ, visited him every day, helping with laundry, keeping his room tidy, taking him outdoors to enjoy the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, and cherishing every moment they spent together.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his son, Shawn.

He is survived by his son, Timothy James (TJ) Bushey; grandchild, Alexander Bushey; brother, Jerry Bushey; sister, Wendy (Bushey) Whitcomb; nephew, Michael Bushey and family; cousins; and lifelong friends.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the caregivers at Rosario Assisted Living for the kindness, compassion, support, and loving care they provided to Tim. It not only brought comfort to him, but to all who loved him.

Tim will be deeply missed, and forever held in the hearts of his family and friends.
