Timothy Edward Wiltz passed away on Tuesday July 7, 2020 at the age of 53. He was born on April 21, 1967, and was a life-long resident of the greater New Orleans area. Devoted husband of Gina Terranova Wiltz, his wife of 26 years. Adored father of Ryan, Jacob, and Alexander Wiltz. Dearly loved son to Linda Gauthier Wiltz and Robert Nelson Wiltz. Beloved brother to Shirlean Wiltz Whittington. Cherished son-in-law to Merle Terranova and the late Anthony (Vic) Terranova. Also survived by many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. He is preceded in death by his grandparents Joseph Brennan & Lilly Mayeaux Gauthier and George Jennings & Julia Gloria Wiltz. Tim was a dedicated business man and fulfilled his dream to open his own business Hebert Wiltz Insurance located in Mid-City, which he and Gina ran for 25 years. One of his many other passions in life was designing and restoring old homes in New Orleans to their original charm. Above all, he was dedicated to his family wholeheartedly. Some of his favorite hobbies included watching his sons play sports and spending the afternoon with his family on the bayou. He also greatly cherished the time he was able to spend coaching travel baseball and gymnastics, and made an impact on every athlete he had the pleasure to coach. Mardi Gras was Tim’s favorite time of the year where he would invite family, friends, and neighbors to celebrate the Endymion parade in front of his family business. Tim touched the lives of so many and will be greatly missed by many friends and family members. Due to current COVID-19 restrictions funeral services will be limited to immediate family. His family will have a memorial service at a later date for all extended family and friends. An announcement will be made once restrictions are lifted. In lieu of flower donations for Tim’s funeral services, his family is asking that donations be made to the American Heart Association in Tim’s name.
