Timothy Charles “Tim” Fry passed away on Thursday, May 31, 2018 after sustaining injuries from a motorcycle accident, at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, Kansas, at the age of 63. He was born on December 16, 1954 in Leavenworth, Kansas to the late Charles and Dora (Luttrell) Fry. On October 16, 1971 he was united in marriage to Roberta Lynn Selbe at the home of Roberta’s parents in Plainville, Kansas. They were blessed with two children, Kandie and Shane. They later divorced.
Tim worked most of his adult life in the oilfield. Always one to enjoy a good time, he not only worked hard, he played hard as well. Being out on his Harley, traveling to wherever the road took him, and spending time with family and friends, were the highlights of his life. Of course his grandchildren always held a special place in his heart reserved only for them.
Tim is survived by his children Kandie Morain and husband Roy of Plainville, and Shane Fry and wife Mandy of Plainville; brothers Darell Fry and wife Pam of Kansas City, Lynn Fry of Des Moines, IA, and Eddie Fry of Kansas City; sisters Kathy Richardson and husband Ken of Tonganoxie, and Mary Beth Sharpe and husband Ted of Kansas City; grandchildren Dominic, Alexis, Jami, Jenna, Kyron, Kane, and Braelynn; and great-grandchild Kaisley.
He was preceded in death by his parents Charles and Dora Fry, brother Edward Fry, sister Cheryl Stevens, and former spouse Roberta Fry.
Tim died just as he lived, with his boots on. Never one to slow down, he loved living life to the fullest, and in the fast lane; but his tender heart and joyful spirit always shown through to those he loved the most. Until we see him again, he will be greatly missed, as he rolls up yonder, riding on to a better place.
Funeral Services will be held at 10:00am on Monday, June 4, 2018 at the United Methodist Church in Plainville. Burial will follow in Plainville City Cemetery. Visitation will be from 2:00-8:00pm on Sunday at the funeral home in Plainville with family receiving friends from 2:00-3:00pm.
