Pastir (1969 \u2013 2026)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Timothy R. Pastir, 57, of Bethlehem Township, passed away peacefully on Monday, July 13, 2026. Born and raised in Hellertown, Pennsylvania, Tim was a son of Richard Pastir and the late Geraldine (Mozaeke) Pastir. He was the devoted husband of June M. (Andreoli) Pastir. A graduate of Saucon Valley High School, Timothy always remained proud of the community that shaped him throughout his life. He was a faithful member of St. Theresa of the Child Jesus Church, Hellertown. Timothy worked for many years as a print operator at Guardian Life, a career that led him to first meeting June, whom he married and shared many wonderful years with. His dedication to his work was evident to all who knew him, but his family was, without question, his greatest priority.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SURVIVORS<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to his wife, Timothy is lovingly remembered by his daughter, Katelyn Pastir; a stepdaughter, Meghan (Ethan) Szvetecz; three grandsons, Emmett Bartholomew, Henry and Leo Szvetecz; his father, Richard Pastir; a sister, Dawn (Mark) Davies; a brother, Christopher (Nancy Burkhardt) Pastir; a niece, Jessica Davies; and a nephew, Kyle Davies. Timothy will be remembered for his kind heart, quiet strength and the lasting impact he made on those who knew and loved him. Even in passing, Tim\u2019s generosity continues to help others through his decision to become an organ and tissue donor with Gift of Life, leaving a legacy of hope and healing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SERVICES<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Services will be held privately in accordance with Timothy\u2019s wishes. Arrangements have been entrusted to Connell-Falk Funeral Homes and Crematory Inc., Hellertown.
