Grant "Tim" Wimer

Thanks for the reminder, amazing how time moves on so quickly. Tim was a special friend of mine and I will never forget the many pleasant times we had together. As we all grow older time passes on, remembering good friends adds to our everyday life. Unfortunately some of our family members and close friends leave us much to soon. Tim was one of my special friends.

We were saddened at the loss of a friend and "brother". Tim was a sheer pleasure to talk and confide in and an inspiration to us in his many abilities!
We who knew and loved him can take heart in our memories of him as a champion of life's challenges. Thank you Tim. You won't be forgotten...

We wanted to send a note to let you know how sorry we are for your loss. We are praying that God gets you through this diffcult time.

Tim was always a special person in my life. We met at Xerox more than seventeen years ago although it seems like only yesterday. He was more than a co-worker but considered a close friend of mine. He quickly established a reputation at Xerox as a no nonsense person, lets get the task done without ever offending anybody.

I was very sorry to hear of Tim's passing and unfortunately not able to attend his funeral, being out of state some 800 miles away. Tim was a very intelligent man with a solid grasp of a wide variety of subjects; my conversations with him over the years at Vavonese family gatherings were always stimulating and interesting. He was always courteous to me and had a lively sense of humor, as well as a drive and determination that kept him going despite some unkind blows that life had dealt him,...

Colleen and Gloria --

The funeral this morning was very moving, and we were honored to attend. Tim was a remarkable man, and we are so thankful that we were able to know him. His energy and vitality will always be remembered, and I will always be grateful for his willing and generous help during our Vacation Bible School programs. The memories at Chautauqua Lake are also very precious!

Since we could not stay, I wanted to let you know that you both are being held close in our...

Gloria, I am very sorry about your painful loss. I want to share a poem with you. I came across this years ago, and found it to be very powerful...

====================================

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of...

Gloria & Colleen,
I was blessed to know Tim (if just for a short time). His love and kindness will always be reflected in your lives.
With Sympathy, Beverly Ott & Family

Aunt Gloria & Colleen,
Unfortunately we could not be there with you and family in the time of uncle Tim's passing. I will always remember the great times we had ice fishing, taking his boat out and gathering the seasons firewood. You are in our hearts and prayers. We love you all. Vance and Bobbi.
