Karen and family,

I was sorry to hear of Tim's passing. He played basketball for me for two years at Mt. Penn High School during the 1966-67, 67-68 seasons. He was instrumental in helping us to win the Berks County, District 3, and State championships in 1968. He was a good player and friend and I shall miss him whenever the team is able to get together. Please extend my sincere condolences to all of his loved ones for me. I shall miss him very much.

Sorry for your loss Andrew and family.
I remember being scared of you pop in high school. He was always so kind and nice though. I still remember the English Class where they would threaten to call Tim and Karen :)
The good old days. I didn't know him well. But he raised an amazing family which shows you he was a really amazing man.
Sorry for your loss.
