So sorry to hear about Tim. Loved to hear him share some of lifes funny stories at work and was always impressed with his talents and mechanical abilities. Tim was a wonderful cook too and could fix a good meal out of about anything he had laying around the kitchen when he took a notion. He may have been a young man but he thought "old school" and I loved that about him. You will be missed my friend ! May God bless the Fleckensteins as they endure another loss in such a short time.

Al and Jamey (and family) I know words can't help at a time like this, but I will always remember Tim's smile and the gleam in his eye when he was sharing a joke and having fun.
