Timothy J. Coffey Jr., 84, of Plymouth, MA, passed away on September 2, 2023, at home surrounded by family after battling a lengthy illness. Tim leaves his wife, Carol W. Chubb, daughters Jeanne Coffey of Bridgewater, MA, Kimberly Murray and husband Richard of North Andover, MA, stepson Lewis Chubb and wife Marybeth of Plymouth, MA, as well as son Mark and wife Sarah of Porter, ME. Tim had seven granddaughters whom he cherished. The special relationship he had with his grandchildren was evident in the unique bond he had with each of them. He was lovingly referred to as Poppa/Papa. He is survived by his granddaughters Amanda and Tabitha Zoebisch, Erin and Priscilla Murray, Madigan Chubb, Meagan and Savannah Coffey and a great granddaughter - the light of his life - Penelope Puopolo.

Tim was born in 1939 to Timothy J. Coffey and Helen K. (Grenham) and grew up in West Roxbury. He was the second oldest of nine children: Josephine (1939-1942), James (1941-2023), David, Paul, Anne Marie, Thomas (1947-2023), Richard "Steven", and Mary Margaret "Maggie". After graduating from Charlestown High School he worked as an electrician's apprentice, earning his license and becoming a business owner, operating his own machine shop. He also opened an electrical business, which had been his dream. In 1973, Tim followed in his father's footsteps becoming a special patrolman with the Marshfield Police Department. Tim became a permanent officer in 1974. Tim attained his Criminal Justice degree at Northeastern University and was promoted to sergeant. In 2004, he retired from the department.

Tim spent summers in Marshfield as a child and eventually moved there after marrying his first wife Priscilla J. (1941-2001), raising their three children there. In his spare time, he liked to hunt, fish, and spend time on the water. His favorite vacation spot was Aruba where he and his wife Carol spent vacations for more than thirty years, making many new friends.

The Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Saturday, September 9th at 10:00 a.m. at Saint Ann by the Sea Parish Church, 591 Ocean Street in Marshfield. In accordance with Tim's wishes, he will then be cremated.
