After serving, he began a career in the retail shoe business working for Morton Shoe Co. as a district supervisor with territory in Oklahoma and Texas. Traveling through the charming college town of San Marcos he realized the small town had a need, a shoe store that catered to the college ladies. He moved his family from Norman, Oklahoma and opened Pompy's Shoes on North LBJ in 1973. After much success, he later opened shoe departments in The Highland Mall shops in Austin and Padre Staples Mall in Corpus Christi, Tx. Tim was also an avid pool player opened Cats' Billiards on South LBJ several years later. Tim was business savvy, but enjoyed the quiet life as well. 

Tim met his best friend Floyd Schlett in the 4th grade at St. Anthony's Elementary School in Beaumont. They forged a life long friendship that took them hunting, ocean fishing, enjoying road trips and traveling through the years. 

Tim enjoyed numerous hobbies and tournament fishing on Canyon Lake, McQueeney and Dunlap. He was a champion Poker player. He excelled playing craps and poker in Vegas, old school Vegas during the Rat Pack era. Passion for Jazz, Blues, early rock and Elvis. Once he was at a dance hall, Little Richard was playing, he and his date took center stage cuttin the rug, he was a show stopper for sure. Tim loved boxing, Cassius Clay aka Muhammad Ali attending as many matches as he could, even taught his daughters how to box.  Tim's kindness and care of animals young or old held a special place in his big heart, he leaves behind his beloved pets, Angel, Harry, L.S. and Yogi.  

Tim will be missed, his presence, absent. The generosity and love he shared so freely lives on. What most don't realize he had one biological child. He was a wonderful, caring, involved Step-father to 6 children that will be forever grateful to have called him DAD.  Godspeed Dad and thank you.
