To Tim's family,
I had the great pleasure to tap dance & sing with Tim w/Tommy Tune & Sandy Duncan back in 1998 doing "Easter Parade" out at the Fifth Avenue Theatre in Seattle. He was then and for the years following always a breath of sunshine when I was so fortunate to be in his presence. My boyfriend George Livengood and I are so saddened by his death. The theatre community has most definitely lost a gem of a person & performer.
with much sympathy,

Dear Albrecht Family,
I feel so fortunate to have worked with Tim in Cinderella at Diamond Head Theatre. I only knew him for a few months, but he made such an impression! His talent and humor will not be forgotten. I hope you find comfort knowing that he was loved very much in Hawaii, and he made a difference in so many lives.
Sincerely,
Melissa Bustamante

Bunky & family,
Not sure if you remember me, I am Karla Hansen's daughter. I never got the oppurtunity to meet any of your family, but I have always thought that you were an extraordinary woman. I know there is nothing I can say to you to ease the pain of your loss. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time.

I have had the pleasure of being the musical director for Tim in "Seussical"and "Cinderella". He will always be very special for me professionally, since he was responsible to bringing my adaptation of Richard Rogers themes in the newly composed ballet sections of this new production of "Cinderella". He had a great sense of humor and was a gifted artist and I will always remember him as such and also as a good friend. He had the wonderful gift of being able to make his dancers and actors feel at ease when he taught them. This is a rare gift that only the best educators strive for, and he certainly was the epitome of his educational craft. It is no surprise that he was loved by many, especially those who had the opportunity to work with him. He will be sorely missed in all of our hearts.

Dear Albrecht Family:
I have come to know your son, Tim, back in 2004 when I first worked with him in SEUSSICAL at Diamond Head Theatre and again in CINDERELLA. I thank God for having Tim be a part of my life. His wonderful sense of humour and love will be missed and always be remembered. May God wrap his arms around your family and calm your hearts. The theatre family in Hawaii misses him very dearly. My continued prayers and condolences to you all. Aloha from Hawaii.

To the Family of Tim Albrecht,
My heart goes out to you at this time. Tim was an amazing person who made anyone who met him feel important or special. I am grateful that I had a chance to meet and work with Tim during DHT's christmas production of "Cinderella." I have learned lots from him, but the most important lesson Tim taught me was to always be prepared because you may never know when you will need to do something at a moments notice. It was unfortunate that Tim left us at short notice, but he's probably in a great place making people laugh and doing what he loves, dancing.
It is comforting to know we have gained another guardian angel to watch over us from the heavens.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Green

Dear Ken, Bunky, Joe, and Denise,
I was so sorry to hear about Tim. I remember his kindness this past summer and all the support he gave Joe and Kelly's children as well as Kelly's family. My son plans to study theater next year in college. Tim took the time to talk with Christian and invite him to visit in New York. It was so kind and meant a lot. Please know our family is praying for you and thinking of you.

The Albrecht Family,
Tim was truly a special gift. His talent, wonderful personality, and most of all his great sense of humor brought so much joy to all of us who knew him or saw his work. I will miss running into him walking down Ninth Avenue in the Hell's Kitchen "Hood" catching up with each other briefly.
Please accept my deepest condolences.

Bunky, Ken, Joe and Roommate,
It is so shocking and unbelievable that you all have had to endure such loss. Words just seem totally stupid and pointless. The only possible teeny warm thought at this time is that the joy and love that Kristie and Tim are surrounded by at this moment surely must surpass the greif in your hearts and souls. I can not stop thinking about your family. I love you.
