Born in Somerville and a resident of Malden for many years, Tim passed away lateWednesday evening at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston after a brief bout with cancer. A retired Boston Globe pressman, he started his career at the Boston Record American in the 60's and then transferred to the Boston Globe. In additional to being an avid golfer he was an active worker for the United Fund One Percent Club and a member of the Stream and Forest and the Boston Globe 25 Year Club. Deeply devoted to his children, grandchildren, family and friends, Tim O'Brien was blessed with an amazing memory and interest in people. If he met you once, he would soon know all about you and your family. His loyalty and interest were expressed in many ways. The devotion, love and personality of this unique man will be sorely missed.
