Timothy Philip "Tim" Pons

From 1998 to 2000, my wife Gina and I worked with Tim at Wake Forest. Please accept our deepest condolences.

We knew Dr. Ponds from back in the day, we are sorry to hear of this loss.

Tim was the closest thing I ever had to an older brother. I respected and loved him immensely. Katie and Alex, your dad loved you more than you can ever imagine.

Tim was the best friend I ever had, or ever will have. He was a great and good man. Most important, though, he was a good and loving father. I hope that Alex and Katie can draw on their dad's love and strength throughout their lives. Tim will be missed deeply.

Alex and Katie: Not only was your Dad a wonderful boss but he was a great friend to me. I will certainly miss hearing all his stories of you guys as you grow up. Please take care of yourselves and take comfort in the fact that your Dad loved you very much.

Tim was the very definition of a good friend, always available to those in need with a helping hand and a sympathetic ear. His presence in our lifes will be sorely missed, but he will always be with us in our hearts.

Tim was such a funny guy. I remember hanging out and being wowed by such an intelligent person beign so down to earth. Tim was greatly enjoyed in life. My deepest sympathies for his family and children.

Tim was my colleague and mentor. I am truly saddened at his passing and hope his children find comfort in his life and work, which had touched so many.
