John Timmerman

Francis Ridge

John P. Timmerman (Dec 7, 1923 - July 12, 2015) of Lima, OH was the Public Relations Officer and Treasurer for CUFOS and maintained the CUFOS photo archive, as well as over 1,000 UFO case files. He studied the UFO question for more than 20 years and was a close friend and associate of Dr. J. Allen Hynek (the founder of CUFOS). Timmerman was also an active investigator for CUFOS.

John founded the first (and perhaps only) CUFOS LAURA chapter in Lima as the nexus of CUFOS was in Chicago four hours away. He retired from major responsibilities at CUFOS in 2008 at age 85 but kept his LAURA going for some time after.
