Timothy C. Doughtie, 61, of Hilton Head Island died Sunday, Oct. 1, 2006 after a short illness at his home in Sea Pines Plantation surrounded by his family and friends.
Mr. Doughtie was born June 4, 1945, in Cleveland. He spent much of his childhood in New Canaan, Conn. In 1961, he moved with his family to Hilton Head Island. The Doughties became mainstays of the community, establishing The Island Shop at the Hilton Head Inn and assisting in the growth process of the new community.
Mr. Doughtie graduated from Savannah Country Day School, and attended Bethany College. He enlisted in the U.S. Air Force and served in the United States and Wiesbaden, Germany. While on leave, he met and married Betsy Elizabeth Doughtie. Upon returning from the service, they set up house on Hilton Head in 1970.
Mr. Doughtie began his career at the Sea Pines Company, where he worked in communications and graphic design. In 1974, Mr. Doughtie opened his own advertising and design agency, Bulls Eye Productions. He expanded this company into the larger TCD/Advertising, which later became Gardo, Doughtie and Rose. In 1989, Mr. Doughtie left the advertising business and, in partnership with Jim Morgan, established High Cotton Enterprises.
Mr. Doughtie garnered many accolades, distinguishing himself by serving on the Hospital Board, the Community Foundation Board, The Island School Council, and the Board of Hospice Care of the Low Country.
