Timothy Michael Wolper, of Schwenksville, PA, died on
November 20, 2024 at St. Mary’s Manor in Lansdale, PA after a
brave-fought 24-year battle with Parkinson’s Disease. He was 71
years old.
Born in Norristown, PA on July 4, 1953, he was the son of John
and Doris (Fugger) Wolper. He is survived by his wife of 38 years
Lisa (Gregory) Wolper and their daughter Virginia “Ginny” Wolper
(Andrew Hershberger).
A graduate of Bishop Kenrick High School, Tim later earned his
BA in Teaching from LaSalle University and his MA in History from
Villanova University. He also obtained his principal certification.
After obtaining his degrees, he spent his nearly 40-year career as
an educator teaching high school Social Studies at
Kennedy-Kenrick and Lansdale Catholic. He was also an adjunct
professor at Delaware Valley University and Villanova University.
Later, he taught at Methacton High School. He was the recipient
of many teaching awards, and was loved by his students and
colleagues.
In addition to his wife and daughter, Tim will be greatly missed by
his siblings John Wolper (Wendy), Bob Wolper (Karen Ritter),
Mary Treisbach (Alan), Kathy Wolper, and Joe Wolper (Lori). He
will also be missed by extended family and many nieces and
nephews.
We find comfort in the thought that he is reunited with his parents
John and Doris Wolper, his parents-in-law Bill and Mary Gregory,
and his niece Caitlin Ciquero.
