Timothy D. Neville

Tim Neville, President and CEO, has worked for Echoing Hills twice. His first time at Echoing Hills was during two summers prior to college. His brother encouraged him to work at Camp Echoing Hills as a counselor.

Then again in 2011, Tim had the opportunity to interview with Echoing Hills for the position of Director of Adult and Waiver Services in Canal Fulton, Ohio. Since then, Tim has not only served Echoing Hills and the individuals and families in that capacity, but also as Regional Director of NE Ohio – Echoing Lake Group Homes. In 2014, Buddy Busch, CEO / President, asked Tim to serve as Regional Vice President – Northern Ohio and oversee the operations of Echoing Lake Group Homes and Stark / Summit County services. It has truly been a blessing for Tim to be back and a part of the Ministry, Business, Organization where his calling all began over 25 years ago. Recently, following the retirement of Buddy Busch, Tim acquired the role of President and CEO of Echoing Hills.

Tim’s compassion for individuals with disabilities grew out of a friendship back in kindergarten.  His best friend, Rick, had a learning disability, but Tim never realized this until later in life. During his two summers at Camp Echoing Hills, Tim realized that his calling in life was to serve individuals with disabilities. He purposefully went to college to major in Business Administration – Management so that he could learn how to manage and lead an organization that served individuals with disabilities and their families.

To know Tim better – Tim enjoys working out in the yard and mowing grass (it’s a stress reliever). He also plays piano. Tim enjoys spending time with family and is proud of his five nieces and two nephews, all of whom are adopted either internationally or nationally. Tim enjoys vacationing at historical spots throughout the U.S. and Canada, as long as they are near an amusement park. Tim attends Living Water Church in Dalton, Ohio. He also recently completed his Masters of Science in Business and Strategic Leadership from Roberts Wesleyan College in Rochester, New York.
