Not sure what to say?

I am so very sorry that Tim has left us, but, just for a while. I knew Tim since Jr. High. He was just always the nicest guy ever, with such a big smile for everyone. He grew into a wonderful man who served others. To his wife Paula, and all the family may you be at peace knowing he is with our Lord. and one day there will be the biggest reunion ever. Love in Christ, Sheryl Lawrence Basinger.

Words can't begin to express the sadness I feel as a good man, great friend and devoted husband recently enter the presence of an almighty and faithful saviour. The world is definitely a better place because of Tim's commitment to improve the quality of life for all; regardless of race, ethinicity or gender. Paula thank you for sharing him with us. Heaven is a little brighter now.

My wife and I are very sorry to hear of your loss. Our prayers are with you in this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Jim & Patti Bennett

Chief Nelson was a good and honorable man and it was my pleasure to have worked for him. His family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tim was a great guy, brought lots of laughs to us when we were in school as kids. He leaves, with me, a legacy of fun and joy.

Tim was a friend going back further than high school. He was a good man, and I hope the comfort of knowing he is with God now(and laughing I'm sure) will bring comfort to his family.

'For the passing of a friend is something that we mourn,
But angels throng about him saying, "A man is born!" '

I only saw Tim once since high school and that was just last year. But I will remember his kind and gentle manners and conversation. He remained an easy man to like.

Peace to his wife and family.

I only knew Tim through a business association but always knew him to be a man integrity and manners. I've met his wife Paula but do not know the family. My heart goes out to each of you for your great loss. I am a Sunday school teacher like Tim and I admire him for sharing God's word. Please know that prayers for peace will be answered.

Paula and Family: My heart was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of your beloved Tim. I remember when you two first got together and how happy you were. I know that 24 years of marriage has etched memories of the heart that cannot be removed through the passing of time. You will always have Tim with you because you were a part of each other. Please cherish those memories for a lifetime. I am praying for you and your family. May the peace of God dwell with you both now and in the days to...
