Tim Yvon, the owner of Quonny Bait & Tackle, died of cancer Tuesday. He opened the store last spring after the death of Don Cameron, who had owned Captain Don’s Bait & Tackle at the same location at the intersection of Routes 1 and 216 in Charlestown. Yvon was 50.

In his youth, he had been a commercial fisherman. As an adult, he was a dedicated surfcaster.

He leaves his parents, Richard and Beatrice Yvon, his three sisters and their husbands — Robin and Jeffrey Nash, Michelle and Paul Serafino and Riki-Anne and Tom Landers — and seven nephews.
