Timothy Mark Albert, known to most as “Tim”, passed away peacefully on June 26, 2025, at the age of 39, surrounded by those he loved most. He bravely fought a four-year battle with brain cancer, inspiring many through his unwavering faith, courage, and deep compassion.
Tim was born on February 10, 1986, to Denis and Theresa (Fairweather) Albert, and grew up with his sister, Kristen (Albert) Morin. From an early age, he showed a deep love for life and an extraordinary athletic ability—excelling in baseball, basketball, and football.
He graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a degree in Recreation Management and Policy with a minor in Computer Science. Tim went on to build a meaningful career as a web developer. At Northeastern University, Tim led a digital team that helped shape an outstanding online experience for students and faculty alike.
Tim had a heart for inner-city ministry and spent years working with incarcerated youth, sharing God’s love and the hope of redemption. He was deeply involved in nonprofit and charitable work, offering his skills in website design, social media, and digital outreach to causes like the Beach Bike Ride and more. Tim also founded Live For The Line—a ministry platform created to encourage those facing cancer to rely on God for strength, peace, and even joy in the battle.
Above all, Tim was a devoted husband and father. He leaves behind his beloved wife of 10 years, Kate (Lawlor) Albert, and their three adoring young sons: Caleb (9), Nathan (7), and Matthew (4). Tim is also survived by his parents Theresa and Denis; his sister Kristen and her husband Matt, and niece, Avery; as well as many other loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and countless friends. His legacy will live on through his children, his ministry, and the countless lives he touched with his compassion and truth.
His life pointed toward a faithful God who meets us in our deepest need. The verse he kept close in the final season of his life was Psalm 146:2, “I will praise the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.”
