I was so sorry to hear that Tim passed away. my sincere condolences to Dana, his parents and the rest of his family.
I met Tim freshman year at MSU. He and I were roommates in '86-'87, along with Kevin and Jeff. We shared a two bedroom in Cedar Village that year.
I moved after school and was unable to really keep in contact with him, but was extremely saddened when I heard the news of his passing. Seeing Tim's picture brought a flood of memories . He was always laughing, smiling, having a good time. I am happy to have known Tim.
Dana, I met you a few times at State and once or twice "back home'. I hope that Tim's memory and the memories you shared will continue to comfort you and help you through this most difficult time. And if you get sad, just look at pictures of him, and that smile, and know he lived a happy life and made other around him happy as well
Sparty on buddy!
