Timothy "Tim" Stacy Trask Obituary (1959 - 2024)

Oakland - It is with great sadness that the family of Timothy S Trask announces his sudden passing on Monday, July 8th, 2024. Tim was born January 29th, 1959, to Stacy U. Trask and Carolyn L. (Treat) Trask of Oakland. He was raised in a large, blended family that helped nurture his love of sports. His love of basketball in particular, along with his natural talent, earned him three varsity letters, a Most Valuable Player trophy, a captain’s pin, and many other honors, before graduating in 1977 from Messalonskee High School. After time served in the Army National Guard, and then the Army, Tim returned to Oakland. He had various jobs over the years, but for the last 25 years he was self- employed, as well as managing two apartment buildings. Tim was the go-to person for so many, and not just his big, extensive family. If you needed your lawn done, a house painted, or locks changed, he was there. Tim loved a good laugh, and a good meal. Many memories were made on snowmobiling trips, smelting, fishing, and boating on Snow Pond where he rented a camp with Valerie and Tina. He was hilarious, and especially loved making his sisters laugh, often ending with the girls in trouble. He loved a good card game, and trips to the casinos with Dave and Dee. He was a die-hard Kansas City Chief’s fan, as well as the Red Sox and Celtics. Above all, he was a kindhearted man, and loved time with his family. He is predeceased by both parents; siblings Daniel Trask, Donald Trask, Tanness (Trask) Smith, Alexis Trask, Terry Trask, and Anthony Cocco Jr.; nephew Stacy Trask; brother-in-law Marshall Roy; and his beloved 20-year-old cat Missy. Tim is survived by son William McKinnon with his wife Malinda and grandsons Trenton and Tyler, all of Brunswick; brother David Trask of Bath; sisters Linda (Cocco) Roy of Winslow, Cheryl (Cocco) Michaud with husband Jerry of Cincinnati, Ohio, Tina (Trask) Boag with husband David of Oakland, and Valerie (Trask) Paul with husband John of Oro Valley, Arizona; along with several nieces and nephews with their spouses and families. He loved and enjoyed time with all of them. The family would like to especially thank Chuck McKinley, Dan Yocz, Lloyd Quirion, Blondie Haskell, and Dave and Dee Proulx. Your friendship and devotion to Tim was deeply appreciated. A Private Ceremony will be held August 10th, 2024, for the family. Please join them at the American Legion in Oakland at noon to share some laughs and stories while enjoying some snacks. Just as Tim would have loved.
