Timothy (Timmy) David Kleve passed away peacefully in Vero Beach, FL on January 3, 2024, after a short illness. He was surrounded by loved ones as he left this world.
Tim was born in Minneapolis, MN on January 30, 1957 to Kenneth and Betty Kleve. He is survived by his partner, Steven Smith; siblings, Diane (Keith) Cotch, Tom (Mary) Kleve, Lisa (Russell) Wiley and Beth (Mike) Degnon. Tim is also survived by many dear nieces and nephews, family, and very dear friends near and from MN, FL, NY and PA.
Tim is preceded in death by his parents; brother, Ken; grandparents and Al Feig.
Tim serviced in the United States Navy from January of 1978 until his honorable discharge in January of 1982.
Tim lived for his family and friends. He brought people together with his genuine love of others and kind spirit. He was loved by many.
“Funeral Blues by W. H. Auden” says how many felt about Tim, “He was my North, my South, my East and West; my working week and my Sunday rest; my noon my midnight, my talk, my song; I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.”
Donations may be made, in Tim’s memory, to Buddy’s World (buddysworld.org) or charity of your choice.
Our caring professionals are here to assist you and your family during this difficult time. We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week to assist in immediate arrangements or pre-arrangements.

Tim will be missed by many, but our love, memories, and many laughs we shared will keep him in our hearts. He was a cherished member of my small friend group. My family was appreciative of all the help he gave me. You will be missed, but never forgotten.

Our sorrow is deep with the loss of our dear friend, Tim. We still can not believe the suddenness of him being gone. Snug Harbor will never be the same without him, but we have so many fun memories to keep with us. He’ll be missed terribly and loved forever. We’ll be around for Steve for as long as he’ll have us.. Love you both, Richard and Niki Davenport.

I have known Tim for 40 years and in all that time I never met anyone who could make friends as easily as Tim. He would always talk to me about his friends and family, many of whom I have never met but I feel as though I have. Tim was such an important part of the lives of so many of us. His kindness, humor and compassion are a big part of what makes up Tim’s spirit, and his spirit will stay alive in our hearts forever. My husband Tom Lillis and I send our sincerest condolences to all of his friends and family. R.I.P. Timmy.

My heart is so sad for you Steve. He was beyond loved. Beyond kind and good. I am sure he is throwing a gala event in heaven.
We will all surround you with love and support and whatever you need. Your love will be you strength. In the end, three things remain. Faith, hope and love,. The greatest of these is love. It is love that we one from and love that we are going to and nothing else- nothing else really matters.

I can’t believe Tim is gone. I was so hopeful after we spoke that he would recover quickly. So that I could finally meet Steve and with Glenn we could all hang out on the beach with Tim.
But I guess God wanted him more right now. I will miss him so much. Because of all my health issues these past 5 years we spoke by phone often. I’m thankful for that.
God bless and comfort Steve, his family and The Kleve Family Especially Diane, Tom, Lisa & Beth.
Rest in peace my dear friend Tim ❤️

Tim always put his artistic touch on our flower beds and landscaping. We will miss him pulling into the driveway ready to give our flowers a facelift. Our neighbors would walk by and tell us how great the flowers looked. Tim was truly magical. We miss you.

I will miss Tim so very much. The one thing that I’ll miss the most is just picking up the phone and giving him a shout. We would laugh, tell stories and just catch-up.
To you Tim, I’ll miss you so very much my dearest friend ❤️

Wow. We have lost a great man, a dear and great man and friend to me. I had tried to research Tim. I knew he was in Florida with Steve (whom I never met but am so sorry for). Tim and I parlayed Europe and the likes, during our service together. We shared a bond I have always, always treasured and shall. My heart wails, but for a rejoice, even. Goodbye, Timothy David.
