When Judy told me of the loss of Tim I knew that his passing would be mourned by so many that loved him so much. I'm sure that the memories that his son Tim has of him will be a source of great comfort. I send my deepest sympathy to Judy, his son Tim and the rest of his family.

Prayers to the family. Tim, John Barnard, Doug Loitz and myself put together a couple of bowling teams for tournaments....we always finished in the money. I also worked with Tim at the Harris Trust in the mid 70's. A good guy that will be missed.

Our deepest sympathy go to our dear friend "Gene" and to her sons' Michael and Jeff and their families. Tim left a wonderful impression as a kind, and gentle man and I'm sure you will feel his loss for a very long time. We hope that you will have some peace in knowing that he is at "home" with our heavenly father as well as his own beloved father. Much love to you all- Patti, Steve and Stephanie Pertchi
