It's hard to believe that it has almost been three years since Tim has been gone. My thoughts are always with you and Michael, but even more so this time of year...he is greatly missed, and remembered always. It helps to look at the photos of all of you and remember the happy times. I hope they offer comfort to you and Michael as well.

It has been almost three years since we cut our last tree together as a family just a few days before Tim was gone from our lives. We thought it might be nice to share a picture that captured that moment.

Timmy, I just found out about your passing. They had a tribute for you at your 25th High School reunion. I know we grew apart but there was a time in my life when you were my best friend. We laughed together got into trouble together went to college together and many other things. I will say a prayer for you buddy and a prayer for your son! God Bless........hey if your with the big man upstairs please have him give me the strength I need to get better and see my baby girl grow up.

Love You Brian Barrett

I just found out today, 2 years later, of Tim's passing. I went to high school with him and this news breaks my heart! My deepest condolences to his family, his lovely wife Deb and his son. Tim was such a fun, gentle soul. He will be missed.

well, it's been a year and i miss Tim so.

odd, we didn't even talk as often as i do with many friends, but there was no one who could reach the place in my heart that Tim did...and still does.

i feel special in a certain way in that the relationship i had with him was one that he did not share with anyone else - our relationship was initially forged as a response to hardship and struggle.....i was ever so proud to see him stand up, shed some of his apprehensions, and step bravely onto the path before him, knowing that he would need to be both fearless and vigilant.....and what rich blessings came his way as a result...he was able to finally stand together with his one and only true love and together they brought forth a beautiful, bright, and smiling son....Tim is everywhere.....he smiles back at me with that mischievous grin every day i look at Michael's picture.......i run a program for people struggling with addiction -- most who basically have nothing left to show for their lives except heartbreak and despair......while they are trying to piece their lives back together, they enjoy drinking coffee and watching their big-screen TV.....the TV that Tim negotiated with SEARS to donate to our center 8 years ago....so, even in small ways like that, he continues to live on....and to love on........Deb and Michael, I hope that God continues to give you strength and that you may find all the joys that you so richly deserve........you are always in my prayers.....and in my heart.......

Jackie Carter

December 23, 2008

Tim you brought such love into our Daoughters life, until we met you Debbie was looking for you and had not had the opportunity you gave her of sharing the perfect love.We miss you more than we can say, you have left a void that no one can fill, the love you shared produced our perfect Grandchild and through him you will live in our hearts always.
Thank you for enriching our lives and teaching us what love is all about and for sharing that love with us.
We will always be proud of the fact that you joined our family and taught us so much about family and friends and sharing.
We love you and you will always live on in our hearts.
Michael and Jackie Carter
Tim's other Mum and Dad.
God Blesss and keep you safe.

Tim,
It's been a year since you past and not one day goes by that I don't think of you. You, Mark, and myself grew up together as brothers. There are alot of great memories I have of us that I will always hold close to my heart. But there is one special memory I would like to share. The last time I saw you was at Rosemary Ave. It was a beautiful summers day and you and I were sitting on the back porch..towards the end with no one else around. I was holding Jack on my lap and you were holding Michael on yours. We each looked at each other then looked at the kids and sighed and said can you believe this?. At that moment I knew that we were thinking and feeling the same joy, love and acomplishment that life had given to us and how far we had come to achieve it. I am thankful for having you as my life teacher, and will never forget the love you had for Mark and myself.
I miss you brother
Michael

Dear Deb and Michael,
Even though it's been a year now since Tim has left us, I think of him so very often. Even though in our worklife Tim was my assistant, I feel I learned more from Tim than I was able to help him. The way he lived his life was a lesson to me in staying upbeat and positive in spite of the obstacles. And he showed us all how to take the time to be genuinely interested in others' lives. And above all, how important family was in his life. So often he would relate how lucky he was to have found Deb and how he so enjoyed being with you.
Then came the joy called Michael into his life. I think I heard about every burp and every diaper changing from Tim the proud papa!
Hanging over my computer desk at home is Tim's Chicago Marathon medal and picture he presented to me after completing his first marathon. It is a daily reminder to me of his determination and perseverence..........and the gift of his friendship.
Brigid and I send all our love and prayers to you and Michael.

I never had the pleasure to meet Tim but I have met Michael so that means I’ve met half of Tim. Perhaps you can take some comfort from the fact that he lives on in that way and will continue to influence people and spread the warmth and kindness that people have told me he had. I hope that the joy and goodness you had with him keeps you strong and happy for the future. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thank you Deborah for keeping this up over the past year. It reminded me very much on how Tim touched our lives so positively. I think of the friend he was and all the joy he added to all our lives, no matter how long we knew him. I also knew how deeply he loved his son and you. I feel him smiling at us all often.

Deb and Michael, They say time heals pain...while that is not true I admit I think of Tim often and smile as I remember how wonderful he is. I also have had the chance to get to know the two of you better and see that Tim, as always, has excellent taste in women and amazing genetics to produce Michael. He is a joy and a tribute to Tim and you.

I will always celebrate the life Tim lived and be greatful for the lovely family he has that are my friends.

Hugs and lots of love, MIMI

Deb & Michael -
We often go through life refering to many people we meet as friends. I am not sure many of us ever actually consider what being a friend means. Tim knew and I am so blessed to say that he was one. He was a friend to me and so many people whose lives he touched.
I still remember the first time I met him. His energy and passion for life and for learning were incredibly contagious. We connected quickly and though distance often kept us from spending time together I knew that I could call him anytime and we could pick right up again.
I am very lucky to have known him. I am even more lucky to have been able to call him a friend. Having had him in my life, even for way too short a time, made my life more full.
I think of him often and miss him desperately. But I also know I am better for having known him.
We continue to keep you and Michael in our thoughts and prayers.
All our love - Michael, Jason, Damian and Alex

Deb and Michael-
So many peoples lives were blessed by this person named Tim Brown. To know him even for any length of time was to love him. He was passionate about his family about his work about his friends. I still cry thinking how short his time was and what an impact he left on everyone. It is an honor to call him friend.

Deb, you know how much Kim and I love Tim, it's our blessing to have had time with him, and to have learned so much from him. I miss him everyday. He was such a beautiful person on every level...words can't describe what a bright light he was for so many of us. He will always be in our hearts.

Valerie Halpin

February 19, 2008

Deb-We met the day of Tim’s service I wanted to let you know that Michael is absolutely beautiful. I'm glad to have met you both take care & Bless you both. If there is anything please feel free to contact me. This is the message that I was talking about that day sorry it took so long to post it. Hope everything is well.

I want to pass on my deepest sympathy. Timmy was my cousin and unfortunately we had lost touch though some rough times in our lives, however when we were teenagers we were very close and I think Timmy kept me sane through a lot of the times, he was always there to lend an ear and I tried to be there for him too (but he by far was the stronger of us). We did loss touch for a period then after High School, but then by the grace of God (when I was going though a very rough patch in my life) Timmy came back into my life and once again was a rock but again we lost touch. However not to much time goes by that I don't think of or miss how close we once were. Just not that long ago I had asked my mother's cousin if she could get me some contact info. Timmy was a great friend and I hope he realized that. Again my thoughts & blessings are with you and your son.

Dear Deb, Michael & family,
There are not enough words to express the feeling of loss we have over losing such a dear friend. We love you & Michael and our hearts ache for what you are going through. There are so many fond memories that we have of spending holidays together and going to our annual RedSox/White Sox games. The times we shared will always be etched in our memory. Tim is an unforgettable person, and he lives on in our hearts. We considered Tim, Deb and Michael an extension of our family. Our thoughts & prayers are with you all.

Deb & Michael,

I am very sorry for your loss and am proud to have called Tim my friend. Both of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ines Medeiros

December 19, 2007

Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss. I worked with Tim for two years on the Tweeter Account. I will forever miss his enthusiasm, drive, and energy but most of all I will remember his sincerity. I’ve worked for Bose Corporation for 10 years, and I can honestly say that Tim is definitely someone who earned my respect and admiration pretty early on in the working relationship. He never took sole credit for anything even if it could have easily been his place to do so … in his mind, words, and actions it was always a TEAM effort. He was always positive and upbeat no matter how difficult the times were and was always looking for the positive outcome/side in any situation. I never knew him to have a bad day because that’s just the positive energy he exuded. I will always miss working with and I’m still in disbelief at the abrupt loss of such a wonderful friend.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and Michael. I truly believe that Tim is now in a better place looking over us and I also know that he will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him. To know have had the opportunity to know Tim Brown is something I will cherish forever.

Guadalupe Hernandez

December 19, 2007

To Deb, Michael & Friends of Tim:
I was deeply saddened by the news of Tim's passing. I had the pleasure of working with Tim before he left to work for Bose. He was such an excellent example of what an Executive should be. I cannot forget his smiling face and how he would speak to everyone. I remember when he shared how he met you and how excited and happy he was when Michael was born. I will miss him very much. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Ray and Marie Brown

December 18, 2007

Dear Deborah and Michael,
Both Marie and I had the pleasure of working with Tim at Sears. Tim was one of the finest young men I have ever been around and he will be missed by all. You both are in our thoughts and our prayers.

To Tim's family,
I first met Tim when he was the MA for Home Theater, Components and Speakers at Sears in 2001. It was my first experience working with someone in that role. He was a pleasure to work with and made me feel comfortable in my new role. He will be missed by many.
Your family is in my prayers during this very difficult time.

Dear Deb and Michael:
Please know that you are in everyone's thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Tim was an unique person who believed in living life to the fullest. I had the pleasure of working with him during both of his tenures at Sears. He will be missed. God must have a special project for him to take him now. But, know that he will always be with you, the two most important people in his life.
Take Care!

Please accept my condolences and deepest sympathy for your loss.

Tim was one of the most intelligent, articulate and kind people I have ever known. To have been a part of his life is a gift to both of you and I know you cherish that. I know I am forever grateful to have been his colleague and more importantly, his friend.

Fondly, Mimi Wahlmann

I worked with Tim on the Tweeter account at Bose. Tim will long be remembered for his charm, warmth and friendly smile.

May the love of family and friends comfort and strengthen you all in the days ahead, and God's gentle hand touch your heart with peace.

Tim was truly a unique and wonderful friend, co-worker and a great person to be around!

Dear Deb and Michael,

I was very saddened to hear of the passing of Tim – He was a great colleague, mentor, and friend. While working for Bose, we spent many days and nights on the road together where he often spoke about how much he missed you both. Professionally, he was incredibly smart, creative, and supportive. But the way I’d like to remember Tim, is as a fun-loving, thoughtful, and caring person. During one of our business trips together, Tim had discovered that I was going to be celebrating my 10-year wedding anniversary. We had spent the night before working late into the evening and we still had plenty of work ahead of us. But Tim was determined to make sure that I wasn’t going to be spending my anniversary working with them! Instead, Tim arranged with my teammates to help my wife and I celebrate our anniversary by hosting our evening at our favorite beachside restaurant.

I will miss Tim very much, but I will always remember how he shared his enthusiasm, passion and love of life with all of us.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Larry Costello

December 15, 2007

My deepest sympathy to your family. As others from Sears have stated, Tim's enthusiasm for his work and for life was inspiring.

Mary,
I am so sorry for you, Judy and all of Tim's loved ones.
I never met Tim, but I've heard you speak of him and the special place he held in your heart. I hope you can find comfort in the happy memories you have of him growing up in your home in Wakefield.
Sincerely,
Maryann Maguire MacDonough (Somerville and Wakefield)

December 14, 2007

Deb & Michael,
My deepest sympathies for your profound loss. I had the priviledge to know Tim during his first tour at Sears HQ. Work was actually fun when Tim was invloved. I remember how proud Tim was when Michael was born and he couldn't wait to share the pictures with everyone. His love for his family was always evident to anyone who knew him. We both changed companies, but stayed in touch by phone because Tim was that kind of guy. Timothy James leaves some big shoes to fill in the lives of everyone he touched. May the love, energy and enthusiasm he left behind sustain you in the days ahead. God bless you both.

December 14, 2007

Dear Deb and Michael,
It was a pleasure to have known Tim. He was such a good friend to Frank and Amy. They truly admired and respected him. This past Thanksgiving Day was the first time that I was able to spend some time with both of you and we had such a pleasant day together. Tim's bright smile and laughter made for an afternoon of fun. Please accept my sympathy for your loss.

Tom Basilone

December 14, 2007

Shortly after Tim started at Bose, he and I began laying plans for how we would work together. At a meeting in Las Vegas, we were on the same team for a scavenger hunt. We "clicked" early on in our relationship. I am greatly saddened to learn of Tim's passing. It's unfortunate but true: every one of us is born with a fatal disease that none of us ever survive--life.

Avrum Mayman

December 14, 2007

Dear Deb and Michael:
I was devastated when I learned of Tim's passing. Tim and I worked together at Bose when he was responsible for Tweeter. I enjoyed his positive, can-do attitude, as well as his work ethic. Tim was an exemplary account manager, and every interaction I had with him was a positive one. While I feel saddened by this loss, I am fortunate to have known him.

Jan Ewald

December 14, 2007

I am shocked and truly saddened to hear of your loss, Deborah and Michael. It's also everybody elses loss that had interacted with Tim as well. I always remembered Tim with a smile on his face and a kind word and believe that the heaven above must have needed him real bad for him to be taken from life so soon. May God bless you both.

Deb Colby

December 14, 2007

Dear Deb and Michael,
I was shocked to hear about Tim and still can't believe his loss. He just adored you both and life itself, it was apparent in the energy he gave to everything. I feel fortunate to have known him and he talked of you Deb frequently, the best Brit he'd ever met. With all my love to you both at this dreadfully sad time.

To Tim's family: My son Dennis and Timmy became friends 12 years ago. Dennis brought Timmy home on many occasions. My family and I immediatedy took to him. He was polite, well mannered and a sincere gentleman. It is with sadness that I write this note. May the memories of Tim you hold close to your heart help you through this difficult time. Sincerely,

Emelie Breault

December 14, 2007

Dear Deborah and Michael,
I can only imagine how you must be feeling and only wish there was something I could do or say that would help but words fail me at a time like this. Tim was a wonderful person, as you know, and loved and respected by many. You are both very much in my thoughts and prayers and I am sure you will find the strength somehow to get through this. Tim's memory will live on in our hearts as I am sure it will in yours also! He was a very special person!

December 14, 2007

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I am still attempting to come to terms with this tragic loss as I am sure all of you are. I can only hope that this entry and my thoughts can offer some comfort during this difficult time. My experiences with Tim were both professional and personal and I can tell you that I have not come across anyone in my 37 years who devoted themselves to helping others succeed more than Tim Brown. He was a friend, confidant, mentor, and colleague to me during the short time we worked together at Bose. I have learned so much from Tim on a personal and professional level and can only hope that I can follow his lead within my own family and network of co-workers. Tim will be sorely missed and the healing process will be lengthy but we must all remember that he is in a better place serving a higher purpose.

My deepest sympathy and support,
Nathan

Dear Mary,
My heart goes out to you and your sister, Judy; you must be devastated. I know that Tim was very special to you, and that you were a warm and loving aunt. The last time I saw Tim was at your son Michael’s wedding. Tim was there with his wife and little boy -- such a beautiful family. There are no words to truly express my sympathy for the profound loss you must be feeling; I can only hope that your many wonderful memories will help you to live with this sad loss. Please know that you, Judy, and Tim's family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss, I still have a hard time accepting the reality. I had the pleasure of working with Tim at Bose here in Chicago and he took the time out of his busy schedule to ride along with me and visit several stores. I briefly met you when i dropped him off and the one thing that always stayed with me was how he took the time to put work aside and try to help me deal with a something personal I was dealing with at the time. This was the first time I had met him and was only with him a day yet he saw noticed something was wrong and offered me great perspective and advice that I still think of today. He actually made me laugh with an example he used from college. Tim-I regret not having come out to see your new home in Barrington and spend time with you and your family. This experience has placed things in perspective for me and I can never thank you enough for what you taught me in that one day and over the time we worked at while at Bose. I'm glad you got to see your Red Sox win not only once, but twice. God bless you and your family.

Steve Bonner

December 13, 2007

Dear Deborah and Michael,
Sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Tim at the Natick Sears. I was sad for the store to see him leave, but glad for him because he was chosen for a management position in Chicago. He certainly deserved it. As with all of us who knew him, our thoughts and prayers go out to you.

Dear Deborah and Michael,
I can not believe this happened. I am very sorry about your loss. Tim will be missed. I had the pleasure of working with Tim at Sears Cambridge, MA almost 12 years ago. He was a very smart and friendly person. He proved himself by being promoted from a saleperson to a corporate leader in Chicaco. Tim was an amazing man. May God bless you all.

How does one put into words the thoughts and feelings one has in moments of profound loss? The living memory of Timothy will forever be within me to share as anecdotes with all who had the privledge to know him.

I’m very sorry for your loss. My deepest sympathy to your family. Tim was an amazing coworker and a great person. He was really dedicated to his job. I had the pleasure to work with him. He was someone that you would see as an example to follow.

Dear Deb and Michael,
Please accept my deepest sympathies. I had the pleasure of working with Tim here at Bose®. I still remember our first ride along in Tampa like it was yesterday, his energy, passion, huge smile and his great character. He was the kind of person that always brought out the best in me. I will miss him dearly, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the Brown family.

Deborah and Michael,
Tim was an amazing guy. He would lift my spirits when I would see him running down the hall lickety split to somewhere or other with a big grin on his face. Happy memories are what we have when someone we love is gone.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
