Dear dear friend what happened and why didn't you call. I have searched for you and I sure didn't want to think of the worse case but that is what became of you. I will miss you so much I don't know what I'll do. I couldn't make it to your funeral because I never found out till the 3rd and I had to be with Adam on the 5th and if anyone understands family then it is you. He needs me and I had to be there for him.
Please remember I will miss you forever and remember I will still need your help like we talked about many times. You were there for me when sister died now I must stand alone and afraid and I miss you so much. Please find peace with God and your family who have gone before you. I pray you feel better than you have the last few years I love you Tim and miss you.
Your best friend 4-ever, Terry

Dad we are gonna miss you dearly!

People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.

When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Tim was all of the above and I will surely miss his physcial presence but his spirit continues to be with me and that helps to make his transition a little lighter. I love you Timmy, kisses everyone and let them know I'll be there one day and when we all see Jesus will prasie him together.

Love your sister

I'll miss my salty-sweet brother. Nobody could tease me like him; I can hear his laugh still. My love for him will never die.
Stay strong family.
