Robert Timothy “Tim” Laster died Jan. 21, at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson after a brief battle with a vicious form of cancer. He was 59 years old.
A lifelong resident of Duck Hill, Tim was born in Winona on Sept. 29, 1966, to Robert Gary Laster and the former Marion McCuiston. He quickly became the “apple of the eyes” of his grandparents, Mungo and Lilly McCuiston and Harris and Frances Laster, of Duck Hill. The Laster’s got a bonus three days later when their granddaughter, Angela Kay, was born. Tim and Angie formed a special bond that was only broken by Tim’s passing.
