Courts

December 10, 2024

President Judge Shawn D. Meyers, on behalf of the entire Board of Common Pleas Judges for the 39th Judicial District, has issued the following memorandum on the passing of Attorney Timothy Wilmot:

“The Common Pleas Judges for the 39th Judicial District are saddened to learn of the passing of Timothy Wilmot. Tim served as a law clerk, Assistant District Attorney, contract attorney, and Divorce Master/Hearing Officer over a career that spanned more than 25 years. 

The following are a collection of observations made by the various Common Pleas Judges in response to learning of his passing: 

Tim was a wonderful man of tremendous character. He loved his family and his community and demonstrated his commitment to both in everything he did. Tim embodied ‘do the right thing for the right reasons.’ He will certainly be remembered by his former DA colleagues and all of the attorneys who practiced before him as Divorce Master as a true professional and a just down to earth good man. 

I will always remember Tim for his undying commitment to doing what is right, his investment in the youth of our community, and his honor. 

I will miss seeing Tim around the neighborhood walking or jogging in his red and gold USMC windbreaker. As the juvenile prosecutor for the DA’s office in one particularly memorable case, he was a very fair and reasonable man. 

Attorney Wilmot’s honorable reputation was well known.

He was a man of great integrity. I always admired him for his dedication to his family, country and community. 

There honestly aren’t many like Tim. His word was solid, his efforts sincere, and his commitment to God, country, family and community unwavering. Even his physical limitations in his final years did not change his outlook. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. 

We offer our collective prayers and condolences to his family, with the deepest sincerity and respect.”
