Tim Chitwood was a legend, a champion, a hero and above all he was my friend. I will never forget Tim. He was loved by many

Thoughts are with the Chitwood family. Followed the family and a young boy. Respected the family for decades. As I became friends with Tim and Joey it made me proud to be in that circle. James Watkins
