Timothy P. Trainor

Timothy Paul Trainor, a devoted husband, loving father, and talented musician, passed away peacefully at home on September 4, 2026, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on October 7, 1964, in Boston, MA, Tim was known for his unwavering optimism, sharp dry humor, and steadfast honesty. He was a man of immense bravery and faithfulness, navigating more than 30 years of dialysis with a quiet strength that inspired everyone around him. Tim chose to define his life through his many passions and his deep love for his family.

His true creative playground was music. A talented keyboardist, Tim "rocked the boards" for decades with numerous bands, including Spongy Muffin and the Hash, Full Krew, Usual Suspects, and Westside Mike and the Cellar Dwellers.

Tim enjoyed a distinguished 37-year career in aerospace at Hamilton Sundstrand in Windsor Locks, CT.

He is survived by his beloved wife of 23 years, Lauran Thompson; his children, Danielle Castonguay and Logan Trainor; his parents-in-law, John and Linda Thompson; and a wide circle of extended family, friends, and bandmates. He was predeceased by his parents, Frederick and Mary (Dow) Trainor.
