Chuck,
I received an email from a past employee at AIB and I was so very saddened by this news. I moved to Indy and Tim was never far from my thoughts. I too have many, many floral arrangements in my home and now they will even mean more to me. Also, the memories of Halloween and the costumes that he created were one in a million. You will be missed my friend, Cyn.

On my many walks around our wonderful neighborhood, taken with my 2 little boys, a frequent stop would be in front of Chuck and Tim's beautiful house. We loved seeing Tim in his garden each spring and will miss his friendly hello's, and instant smile in the midst of the hundreds of tulips. The garden and flowers are a perfect reminder of a sweet person.
We are thinking of you Chuck during this very difficult time.

With Love, your nephew.

Although I have never met Tim in person, through your wonderful stories of the day to day activities in your home I feel as though I had known him forever. After reading the other guest book entries it is obvious that Tim was joy to many. I know that you and the dogs will miss him terribly, please know that we are all here for you.

Dear Uncle Chuck,
I can't imagine what an incredibly challenging time this is for you. Thinking back on the hillarious and sarcastic times I was privilaged to spend with the two of you brings a smile to my face. I am grateful that you set a positive example of the importance of companionship on this earth for me during some shady times. The love that Tim and you shared for each other almost made me wonder how you kept such a good thing going. I love you and I am terribly sorry for your loss. It's amazing how you shared your incredible fashion sense, green thumbs, and sarcastic comments with each other over the years and used each difference to complement each other. Stay strong. Tim is not gone, he's just going to be absent for a while. He still lives and he still loves you. Keep your memories of the good times and the bad - remember his face. You are loved by so many. I know you will make it through this in time - don't rush. In the end, everything is what it is supposed to be. I love you!
Sincerely,
Sarah Lantz

Dear Chuck,
I want you know how much I love you and how it breaks my heart to see the heartache and pain that you have gone through the last few days. Tim was a wonderful person and you have been blessed to have him in your life.
You are such an example to this family of your unwavering love and care of Tim in his last years. You and Tim are very giving people. We will miss our time that we spent as a family and how the two of you always kept us laughing. The Heavens are blessed to have Tim return home. His kindness, gentleness and hurmor I know will be appreciated there, especially by Bandit. He will be loved there for who he is. I'm sure there will be much laughter with family and friends now that he is there. I look forward to seeing him again. Thanks for sharing Tim with us!
Love Your Sister,

Although I didnt' get a chance to meet Tim I still feel as though I knew him. Of course, with me chatting on the phone with you I could hear Tim's comments in the background.

Sam, Raylene, Krisha, P.J., and Chaz all send their Sympathy to you. Take Care and God Bless You!

Chuck,
I am so sorry to hear about Tim. I used to work with Tim at American Investment Bank. I remember the 1st day I started at AIB Tim walked by my cubicle admiring my calendars of a Bichon and a Springer. He immediately stopped and we started talking about our passion for dogs. Changes were made at AIB and Tim became a team leader in the Bank Loan department. I worked even closer with him. He was always making the funniest remarks and had us all laughing, even when the day was busy and everyone was stressed. We could count on Tim to make us all chuckle. He was a fantastic person and I always enjoyed talking to him. I even have several wreaths and arrangements that he made for me. He will be greatly missed.
