Born on November 23, 1948, Tim was the son of the late William and Ruth Reid Myrto and the husband of Connie Nightingale Myrto. He retired from General Motors in 2004. In addition to riding motorcycles, Tim loved playing his trombone with the "Osteoblasts", part of Bone Therapy. Bone Therapy is a group of dedicated Nashville area part-time trombonists formed in 2004 in search of the enjoyment that comes with playing trombone ensemble music of all styles. The name comes from the groups origin as a trombone quartet of physicians in various phases of their careers. Since some of them were also members of the physician-originated big band "Sound Therapy" the name was a natural. Bone therapy has become a large trombone choir that now also includes clergy, current and former band directors, high school and college students, etc.
In addition to his wife Connie, he is survived by six cousins, several brothers in law and sisters in law, also survived by his family pets; seven cats and six birds. He was preceded in death by one brother: Billy Myrto.
Pallbearers will be members of the Bone Therapy Group and close friends from General Motors.
Memorials may be made to the PAWS of Maury County, P.O. Box 1632, Columbia, TN 38401.
