I worked with Tim at Titan Wheel in Walcott, Iowa many years ago. I was never what you would consider close or a friend of his but recall him as a good guy. Over the years I have noted several of our old co-workers from Titan have passed on and it brings back fond memories of times past.
I hope that you rest in peace Tim.

Anne and family, Tim was a very interesting man who turned into an entrepreneur as a second career. He was hard working, humorous and thought the world of his wife and family. He was taken too soon but is free of pain now. Rest In Peace my friend. Our deepest sympathy to all of you. Steve and Ann Suiter
