We are always left wondering why the people we love so dearly are taking away. Tim, you were always such a big "presence" in our family. An "out of this world" sense of humor that would have all of us rolling in laughter. Thats what I will hold dear in my memory, your smile that lit up the world, and your laugh that was care free.
Rest in Peace. I know you will always be looking over your family.

It is never easy to let our loved ones go. All our hearts share in your loss. We hope that as time passes the tears will stop falling. You will know when the healing has begun when you can speak of your Dad, your husband, our friend without crying. We are so saddened for your loss.
With much love, The Reitz Family
