Joe Timothy “Timmy” Gahagan, 65, passed away on Aug. 22, 2020 in Coushatta. A memorial service will be at Rose-Neath Bossier City on Friday, Aug. 28, 2020 at 2 p.m. with a visitation starting at 12 noon prior to the service. 
Timmy was born on July 15, 1955 in Coushatta to parents Bobby and Martha Gahagan.
Timmy worked hard as a project manager and took quite a bit of pride in his work, which showed in his 32 years he worked in construction. 
Timmy was an avid fisherman. He fished down south in the saltwater and marsh lands, or at home in the rivers and lakes with his beloved wife Lisa. He loved his LSU tigers and watched all the games. He took up grilling and enjoyed having crawfish boils. 
Timmy was a man that knew a little bit about everything. His children could always call him about a new project or endeavor and he always had something to contribute. He often would talk sports with his son Jordan. He was caring and never met a stranger. He made his wife feel protected, safe and secure.
Timmy was a passionate person, no matter if it was good or bad. He was proud of his work, proud of his LSU Tigers, but especially proud of his family and the fact his son-in-law Chaise, serves his country. 
Joe is preceded in death by father Bobby and son Michael Shaw. He is survived by wife Lisa Storey Gahagan; daughters, Kelli Baker and husband Michael and Jodi Owens and husband Chaise; son, Jordan Gahagan; mother, Martha Gahagan; brother, Wally Gahagan and wife Cindy; sister, Mandie Crotwell and husband Lars; grandchildren, Landen, Dylan, Josie and Micah, and other loved family members and friends. To his fishing buddies, Rooster, Kyle, Wade, Hopkins and Mark, “Stay off my brush piles.”
