I´m very sorry to hear that Tim has passed away. I knew Tim from high school and enjoyed his company. I visited with him and his wife Dee about 15 years ago at their home in Dodge City, KS. He was a good friend.

The best times I had with Tim were working mid shifts in Dodge City. We'd listen to lots of music (especially George Thorogood), talk sports and life in general. Glad we crossed paths, Tim.
