Remembering TiMira

A life held close in memory

TiMira Marchelle Pullom was a loving daughter and a devoted mother whose family remembers her for a bright smile and a readiness to help the people she loved. At 28, TiMira’s life centered on her little boy and the close family ties that surrounded them. Her mother, Valerie Pullom, and siblings described TiMira as someone who lifted others — encouraging her mother through health struggles and offering comfort to nieces and nephews.

Family members said TiMira took seriously the everyday, quiet work of caring for her child and supporting those around her. When looking through the public record and statements released by her family, a consistent theme emerges: TiMira brought warmth and steadiness into ordinary moments, from helping with appointments to sharing laughter with close family. Those who knew her recall how her smile and kindness lingered in their memories.

After her death, TiMira’s family and community gathered to honor her life. They planned services and small acts of remembrance — including a balloon release — to celebrate the person she was rather than the violence that ended her life. Her mother has taken on the responsibility of raising TiMira’s son, working to preserve his mother’s gentle influence and to raise him with the peaceful, kind-hearted values the family associates with TiMira.

Public accounts and family statements emphasize TiMira’s role as a mother and family member rather than the circumstances of her death. While legal proceedings later addressed the criminal matter connected to her death, the surviving focus among relatives has remained on TiMira’s life and the everyday, human parts of her story: the ways she encouraged family members, the comfort she offered to loved ones, and the love she held for her child. Her memory lives on in those who continue to tell small stories about her laugh, her care, and the ordinary kindness she practiced.

This remembrance is offered with respect for the family’s wishes and for the limits of the public record. The details included here are drawn from public statements by family members and reporting that identifies TiMira Marchelle Pullom and the central role she played as a mother and daughter in her community.
