Timothy Paul “Tiny” Hansen, 31, a lifelong resident of Elgin, died Wednesday of a heart attack in Provena St. Joseph Hospital there. Mr. Hansen was a truck driver for Lencioni Wholesale Meats, Wauconda. “He was a good kid,” said his father, James O. “His nickname was Tiny. He was big at one time, then lost a lot of weight. He was born with a heart defect. He had a good sense of humor. We’re all going to miss him.” Other survivors include his mother, Margie; a brother, James C.; and a sister, Kimberly. Visitation will be from 3 to 9 p.m. Friday in Wait Ross Allanson Funeral Chapel, 51 Center St., Elgin, and from 9:30 until 10 a.m. Saturday, when a mass will be said in St. Thomas More Catholic Church, 215 Thomas More Drive, Elgin.
