Tim I can't believe eight years have gone since we said our final goodbyes. You were one of the kindness people I have ever known. I am sure you went straight to heaven. Claudia

Remembering such a wonderful fun man. Tim was such a joy to work with at GMSPO Lansing. Loved meeting him at car shows too. It doesn't seem like 6 yrs. Still miss him a lot.

I will miss you, Uncle Tim. I will miss your smile, your chuckle, your soft-spoken way of getting the rest of us to laugh with you. Caroline was so looking forward to learning to play the guitar with you. She is going to learn now in your memory. Joshua wore your Spartan hat to the funeral. I can already tell he will cherish it. You were a good man, and I only wish I'd taken the time to show you more how much I loved you. I still do. Rest in heaven, Uncle Tim. We'll see each other again one day.

Tim was a good friend we knew for many years. We are very sorry to hear of his passing. Tim was a great person to work with & a fun person to ride back & forth with (Tim & Tim worked in Lansing). He was a gentleman & a good friend who will be missed a great deal.

We are so sorry for your loss. I had the great pleasure of working with Tim and he was a good friend to us. Jim and Tim had lots of good times on the golf course. Our trip to Epcot was a highlight of one of his trips to Florida to visit us. We will miss him.
