ALBANY - Timothy D Gapp, 66, of Guilderland passed away Thursday January 30th, 2025 at Albany Medical Center.
He was born on August 29, 1958 in Amsterdam New York. He was the son of the late Theodore L. Gapp and Elizabeth Tarnowski.
Tim attended Voorheesville High School graduating in 1976. He then attended Hudson Valley Community College.
After college he went on to spend a few years living in Houston Texas before moving back and settling down in the Capital Region for the remainder of his life.
He worked for over 20 years at Dorato’s Restaurant in Guilderland as a bartender where his customers weren’t just customers, but his friends. He also worked for New York State Comptrollers beginning in 2004 until the time of his passing.
He was an avid and talented golfer, even shooting a hole in one that he was incredibly proud of. He also loved the New York Giants, New York Yankees, and his nightly game of Jeopardy always trying to get as many correct answers as possible.
Tim always met everyone in his life with a warm smile. He had a quick wit and a heart of gold.
Above anything and everything else in this world his greatest pride and joy in his life and the center of his world was his daughter, Leah. Nothing made him more proud than being her Dad.
He is survived by his wife Erin O’Brien Gapp, his daughter Leah Maryelizabeth Gapp, his two sisters Erin Perlee and Loriann (Cliff) Bradshaw. He is also survived by his Brothers Michael Gapp (Donna Carkner), and David Gapp as well as many nieces and nephews and his lifelong best friend Jeff McClintock.
