Tim was a very unique person.
An unbelieveable ability to do creative and varied work with his hands. The best at whatever he did. We will fondly remember him for this and the many times he helped us when we had nobody else to turn to in this area.
We will surely miss his positive, easy going, caring, and helpful attitude.
Goodby Tim.
May God Bless the family.
