Not sure what to say?

Sorry to hear of the death of Tim Scrantom.

In 2001-2002 we worked together at his law firm, Ten State Street (based at 180 East Bay Street, Charleston S.C.) and in London (at Gray's Inn and in Mayfair, where I headed an offshoot of Ten State Street). We also were going together to Liechtenstein for a meeting but he forgot his passport, so I made that trip alone...

I very much liked Tim Scrantom's usually relaxed "Southern gentleman" style, which he ---usually--- managed...

Tim our unconditional friend. We will miss you for ever!

I was deeply saddened to see Tim's name when I opened up my Stetson Univ. Magazine today. We were best of friends at one time and backpacked in Glacier NP and rode bicycles across Wyoming as far as Fort Collins, CO (ironically where I live now). I hitchhiked back up to get his car near Yellowstone NP and dropped it off in Leadville, CO where he was doing Outward Bound. I headed off on my bike to start a life in NM. Only weeks later did I hear about the terrible car wreck he had on his...

I learned today of Tim's passing; deeply sorry for the family's loss. Tim and I practiced together in Charleston at Ten State Street LLP; had some amazing battles together including a fist-fight with two ruffians in London one night, resolved by Tim flashing a bottle of Bordeaux he happened to have in his overcoat pocket. I was always inspired by his dedication to the law, boundless curiosity, and professional brilliance. Hail Fellow Well Met.

Deeply saddened and affected by this tragedy. Our hearts go out to you. RIP

My dear friend, I will miss you a lot. Rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss Bill and family.

My heart hurt when I heard this news...Tim was a great friend in high school and clearly lived an amazing life benefitting many people...RIP My Friend.

So sorry about Tim's death he was truly an exciting Renaissance Man.
