Obituary for Timothy A. Sommers
Timothy A. Sommers, 62, of Allentown, passed away on February 12, 2022, in his residence. He was the beloved husband of John Kelly with whom he would have celebrated 27 loving years of marriage this May. Born in Northampton, he was the son of the late Edward H. and Nettie J. (Kemmerer) Sommers.
Tim’s work ethic was like no other. He was employed by Harrigan’s Grill and Bar where he started as a food server and progressed steadily up the company’s ladder to store manager. Tim was an extremely intelligent man who possessed a mind like a steel trap. He was able to figure out anything and everything that crossed his path. He was a loving and giving man who would help anyone in need. He will be truly missed by all who knew and loved him.
In addition to his husband, John, he is survived by brother, Paul Sommers of Effort; sister, Robin Sommers of Allentown; his beloved dachshund, Tara; and many nieces and nephews. Tim was predeceased by siblings, Butch Sommers, Darlene Newell, Patricia Owens, and Helene Phelps.
