Tim's family -
Tim always treated me as if I was part of his family. He helped me out so much when I moved to Elko.
I will always remember the great times we had playing the guitars and listening to his funny songs and stories. He was a great guy and will be missed by all who knew him.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of his family.

To Tim's family:
I have fond memories of Tim from the past 15 or so years. He always treated me and my family like I was a part of his. I remember helping hang siding at the house he built on the summit and countless times where he would invite me over on St. Patrick’s Day for Corn Beef and Cabbage. Ryan, Troy, and Shaelan, your father certainly left behind a lasting legacy.
