Obituary

Timothy Gilligan, 62, of Florence passed away on October 21, 2020. Timothy was born in Dorchester, MA to Thomas P and Kathryn Gilligan. As an adolescent and young adult he was a classically trained concert pianist, had several CDs, and played at Carnegie Hall in New York. Afterwards, he became a performing artist agent for several years in NYC and then worked directly for the Beatles producer, George Martin of Apple Records. He was hired by Apple Records for classical music expansion and later to supervise the rebuilding of George Martin's recording studio on the island of Montserrat. Unfortunately, after rebuilding had been completed a massive volcanic eruption destroyed the studio again. Tim returned to the US and began teaching music at college level along with becoming a Music Professor and Piano Teacher at UNA.

Tim is survived by his brother, Tom Gilligan (Peggy); nephew, Brendan P Gilligan, MD (Nicole); niece, Meghan E Cummings (Mike); grand-nieces, Lilah and Arden Gilligan, Caitlin, Mackenzie, and Emily Cummings.
