my deepest sympathy's to the family we never can understand why the ones we love are taken from us, but there is always a plan that we don't understand..Timmy has been a friend of mine for a long time and then became my step brother... And I have very fond memories... another angel is watching over us.

Heaven has welcomed in a new angel!
At times like this, words cannot say the things we’d like them to,
nonetheless, may it be a help to know my thoughts are there with you.
May warm memories surround you and bring you comfort.
