This is always one of the hardest things to write about. Timmy was a good friend and somewhat like a brother to me. He always had a smile and a joke making everybody laugh or when it was needed he'd come up with some poignant statement to put us all in a contemplative mood. What a guy!

I remember the great times we had on the golf course of choice and the camaraderie which drew us all closer as the years went by. And the Thursday night driving range practice was, without parallel, one of those driving (pun intended) forces of our brotherhood. How could we ever have had the New Year's day golf outing without the Timmy presence?

I will miss him greatly as I'm sure we all will.
