Not sure what to say?

We just found out that Tim had passed. We made friends with Tim at the Volvo Car Clinic in Durango many years ago. After we sold our car we would stop in just to say hi. We are very sad for his family, the family he was so very proud of. RIP Tim.

What a loss! Tim was a client of mine for the past 12 years or so. Aside from his knowledge and expertise, I will truly miss the banter we had about a wide variety of topics. My condolences to his family.

So sorry for your loss, I met Tim at a corvair convention, he always had nice encouraging words for me and was such an easy person to talk with, may he rest in peace.

It is with great sadness and shock to learn of Tim's unexpected passing. My deepest condolences to Lily, Matthew and Anthony. Tim was a great Volvo and Corvair mechanic but more importantly, Tim was a wonderful human being. Kind, personable, and giving. We shared many, many enjoyable conversations. Tim will be sorely missed by so many. May he rest in peace.

No way, where have you gone? So soon, so tragically. We had more encounters planned at this summers Corvair Homecoming, the Dayton Convention. Tim? Tim? TIM???

We are so sad to hear of Tim´s passing. A neighbor of the Shortles, we saw them often, generally driving his Volvos around. He will be missed. Please reach out if we can do anything for the family. Gary and Vonnie

My husband Carl Kelsen introduced me to Tim and Lily when I attended a Corvair convention quite a few years ago. Coming from Australia, I did not know many at the event. Tim and Lily were incredibly warm and welcoming at that time. When Carl attended future events on his own, there was always a message from my new friends. I was looking forward to catching up at the Convention this year. We were both devastated when we received the news and can only share the pain and loss that his family...

We are shocked to hear the sad news. We met Timothy the first time at the Tri State 2013. I still admire how patient and friedlich he was bugged by my joungest one exermining and testing the Camping quality of his Corvair van. A great guy surely missed by our family.
