Very sad to hear of the passing of my old friend Tim. Although we did not spend much time together or stay connected over the past few years, I have many great memories of our friendship as roommates at University of Tennessee and close friends for many years following our time in Knoxville. I will always remember Tim as a very generous friend who would do anything to support you in good times times and bad. We shared our pet Nikki while in college when she was a puppy but it was clear that she was clearly more devoted to Tim as her master for many years to come. Rest in peace old friend, I will never forget you.

I was very saddened to hear of Tim's passing. Our family business rented space from Tim since I was a boy and have fond memories of him coming around to talk with us. He was always very caring and a great help to my mother Barbara. My sincere condolences.

To the Roberts family. I was saddened to hear Yeah God had called him home to his heavenly kingdom. I had the pleasure of working and knowing Tim while I was employed at Millerindustrial in Elk Grove Village. Tim was a kind hearted person. What a beautiful smile. May the good Lord bless all of you during this time. Keep those mindful memories of him in your heart. He will always be watching over all of you.

With deepest condolences to the Roberts family. I was so lucky to have Tim as a dear friend growing up in EG. So many great memories...Sledding on Byrd hill in grammar school - then warming up with hot chocolate that Mrs. Roberts made ...Winning conference championships at Lively in track and basketball (thanks Joe!) with Mr. "Yo" Lansdown....And cruising around EG in Tim's Cougar and my Chevelle, and so many more wonderful memories. Tim was a great friend. I love you Tim.
