I am so sorry to hear about Tim. He went to 7th grade with our son, Mike Zarob, and they played a lot of soceer together in Palatine and at PHS.
I always think of the Updike family when I walk and bike on Carpenter Dr. I will now say many prayers that these wonderful parents of Tim's and the entire family can deal with his passing. I will be thinking of you.
