I am so sorry to hear that Timmy has passed away. I just found out from the Alesse's. I haven't seen him in many years but thought about him when I got together with some of the old gang from Waltham. No one knew where he lived. He was always a great person, helping others when we were kids. He always helped out my Dad with yardwork and shoveling. I remember him visiting my Mother from time to time. She loved him. He would come and shovel the walk for her. He had a very kind heart and would do anything for you. Please know that I'm thinking of you all. Please feel free to E-mail me. I would love to hear from you. With my deepest sympathies, Love, Patti Hines

I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I just found out tonight and my heart goes out to you, his family. I knew Tim throughout high school and a few years beyond. We would always give each other huge hugs and catch up on life. He was a great friend! It saddens me to have read about Tim this way especially since I have been fighting cancer myself. My very supportive family did the Dana Farber 26.2 walk this weekend as I cheered them on from the sidelines wearing a t-shirt that spoke to us all "CANCER SUCKS" Maybe next year I will walk with them as well. RIP Timmy
