Not sure what to say?

When my sis Carol and Tim were 1st married, my dad didn't think Tim was good enough for his daughter. Finally after about three years, my mother Violet and dad went into Carol & Tims for Sunday dinner. Dad took one bite of "Tim's" prepared meal & was struck by the "Taste" genie. He couldn't get enough and stuffed himself. Afterwords he found out Tim was a bit of a Gorme cook and thru' his stomach began to like his son in-law.

Funny guy, intelligent, humorous, great cook and good husband. I'm Carol's brother Addison. I'm 80 yr's old now and doing some reflecting on past memories. RIP you, With much love, Addison.Go Wolves!!! Ant man got it, dogs!

Till we meet again in heaven ! Save a spot for me! Until we meet again may he hold you in the palm of his hand ! Love ya Uncle Tim

Tim was a good friend during our growing and early adult years. Unfortunately, I had lost touch with him. He was always fun to be around and an all around great guy.

I was saddened to hear of Tim's (and Carol's) death. I also knew him from our years at Annunciation, was a friend of both he and and Carol. I will always remember some of the ridiculous growing up experiences I had with Tim. One fond memory is of Tim's first car, a Renault Dauphin, that he exhaustingly worked on to get it to run. Pushing it around our neighborhood blocks and then jumping in for a brief ride was the best we ever did. I'll miss him.

The time that I knew Tim was a great time for our generation. I too am from Annunciation, knew Brad who was in my class and also knew Pete, a year younger. I also remember Mary Ellen who worked at the drug store. We were all "family" back then. My brother and husband were classmates of Tim. I remember Memorial Day sojourns to the Apple River with Tim and Carol, welcoming in spring and anticipating summer, enjoying good times on the banks of the river with grills stoked for bbq and beer...

Tim and I were grade school friends and we had some good times. Tim and Carol are in our prayers. My wife, Carol, and I dedicated Sunday Mass to Tim, Carol, and family. God Bless.

We were good friends from grade school, high school and beyond. My family lived a block away from his home on Pleasant when we were kids. I have many fond memories of Tim growing up and going to Annunciation. I lost contact with Tim and Carol about 15 years ago. I was surprised and saddened to hear about his death.
