MT PLEASANT- Timothy Dean Gould, 66, passed away on Thursday, January 12, 2023 at Atrium
Health in Charlotte, NC surrounded by his three sons. He was a loving Father and Grandfather.
Tim was born on October 12, 1956 in Sioux City, Iowa to Howard D Gould and Margaret E (Kelly) Gould.
While he raised a family and spent the majority of his life in North Carolina, Iowa was the only place he
ever considered home. Tim graduated from North High School in Sioux City, Iowa. He retired in 2022
from Performance Orthopedics of the Carolinas, Inc. where he spent 20 years helping supply the region
with orthopedic devices and supplies. Though he was a hard worker, he always had time and energy for
his family.
Tim was talented at anything he set his mind to. Whether it was remodeling his home for his growing
family, building a tree house in the backyard with his sons, or tinkering with and customizing his truck he
was always curious to learn how things worked and passed that curiosity and desire for knowledge on to
his boys.
He also wanted his family to see as much of the world outside of the place we lived, so frequent
trips to the mountains and beaches of North Carolina were common, but he also made priceless
memories with his family visiting landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, Gateway Arch, Washington
Monument, the Georgia Guidestones, Crazy Horse Memorial and as many interesting places as could be
explored in between. He was also a kind and devoted pet owner. Most importantly, he was an amazing
Dad. He was preceded in death by his brother Terry H. Gould.
He is survived by his three sons: Aaron L. Gould, Jonathan D. Gould and Reuben J. Gould; his grandson
Oliver D. Gould; and sisters Suzanne K. (Gould) Lawrence (Skip Lawrence), Debra L. (Gould) Clouten
(Stephen Clouten) many nieces and nephews and a rambunctious cat, named Star.
A memorial service will be held at 11 A.M. on Saturday, January 21, 2023 at Wilkinson Funeral Home in
Concord, NC.
