I am so terribly sorry to hear this news. Tim attended the Edward Buncombe DAR Chapter Patriot grave marking in Asheville in October 2015, and we greatly appreciated his presence.

Sorry we will miss the Memorial Service. Tim will be missed. He was a great help and companion to me and St. Mark's as I served as Educational Ministry director for 13 years.

Tim was an awesome friend and compatriot to the SAR. He had great respect for Patriots from all eras. He was always willing to help and always willing to listen. It's still difficult to think that Tim has left us.

Tim was a truly wonderful kind person and never had anything bad to say about anyone. I will surely miss sharing a dram with him at the Highland games. But more than that I will miss talking with him about the issues he and I held so dear. Sleep in peace my friend. go dtuga Dia Slan thua.

Tim was a good friend and compatriot in remembrance of our Confederate soldier ancestors. A knowledgeable historian of Revolutionary battles and campaigns, as well as the War of Southern Independence, his keen intellect and charming personality will be sorely missed by his many friends who valued his companionship and shared common interests. My sincere sympathies to all his family. I will miss him much.

Tim was the most knowledgeable Compatriot in the North Carolina SAR. He worked to make our society better every day. His leadership and willingness to assist others made him the "go-to" guy. We will always remember and thank him for his willingness to serve at every level of the North Carolina SAR!
