Tilford loved racing of any kind, fishing, and spending time with his wife, kids, and grandkids. He was everyone’s rock. It didn’t matter if you were a stranger, Tilford would go out of his way to help you. His family was his world. His face lit up every time he saw his kids and grandkids. Tilford’s number one priority was Janet. He lived to take care of her and make sure she had everything she needed. He was a very proud husband, father, and Papaw. Now he is in heaven doing his favorite thing, fishing.
