Verbich was a Pennsbury High School graduate and talented artist who enjoyed gifting his creations to family members and friends, according to an obituary.
“He enjoyed skateboarding, thrifting and treasure hunting, coffee, going to vintage diners, art deco aesthetic art and architecture, and had an eye for fashion, often creating unique looks from otherwise ordinary-looking free and found pieces,” the obituary read.

Verbich had studied to be an art teacher and later earned a certification to assist people in recovery. He was a volunteer with a number of organizations focused on helping the unhoused.
“Tim could often be seen stopping on his bike to talk with people struggling with homelessness or addiction, and would later return with items or resources that they needed. He often did all of this without telling a soul, as he almost never bragged about the good he did. His mellow and non-judgmental energy put people at ease, and he was well known and loved by the population of people he helped,” the obituary said.
