Ralph Tim Bolt, Jr.

Ralph Tim Bolt, Jr. passed from this life on April 16, 2026, at the age of 76 in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

Tim was born on February 25, 1950, in Hominy, Oklahoma, the son of Ralph Tim, Sr., and Florine Mary (DeLonais) Bolt. Tim grew up in Hominy, where he later graduated from high school with the Class of 1968. Tim attended college in Northeastern Oklahoma for a short time, then returned and began working in the oil field. During his time working, Tim worked for Brown and Cruzen Drilling, Hughes Drilling Company, and several other smaller companies. He also worked overseas in Bahrain for a couple of years. Tim later worked as a pilot car escort throughout the Midwest.

Tim always enjoyed playing pool. He also liked drawing, singing, and making kites. One of Tim’s greatest joys was supporting the Hominy Bucks. He was a devoted fan, and you could often find him at the games, walking the fence or along the track, following every play. Many of the players would tell you they could hear his voice from the sidelines and knew exactly who it was—his enthusiasm and support never went unnoticed.

Survivors are his two children, Tim Bolt, III and wife Janell of Hominy, Oklahoma, and Maggie Gwinn and husband Dillon of Hominy, Oklahoma; siblings, Sherry Pradmore of Mannford, Oklahoma, Sandi Dailey and husband Randy of Hominy, Oklahoma, and Mike Bolt and wife Dana of Shawnee, Oklahoma; six grandchildren, Lily, Ella, Daegen, Skye, Kyllie, and Karsyn; as well as other relatives and friends.

Tim was preceded in death by his parents, Ralph Tim, Sr., and Florine Bolt; his brother, Tom Bolt; and his brother-in-law, Morris Pradmore.

Services will be held at 11:00 a.m., Friday, April 24, 2026, at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Hominy, Oklahoma, with Father Louis Obirieze officiating.
