Dear Gautreau Family,
There are not enough words to express the deep sadness and loss that you are feeling during this time of grief but please know that the Lord has his loving arms about each and every one of you.
I am a substitute teacher for Willis ISD and I had the joy to have Madyson in one of my classes this past week but my heart was saddened for Madyson when I heard the news about the tragedy that your family experienced.
I will keep your whole family lifted up in prayer during this time.

Timmy, Tommy, & Travis,
My family's deepest condolenses. I have a lot of fond memories of both your parents, Tim teaching me Algebra in 9th grade and actually making it make sense to a 14 year old, God knows I neeeded all the help I could get. Your mom educating me on the meaning of a certain term that I called Timmy out loud on the karate floor when we were just kids and I didn't know any better. I can still hear both Tim & Madonna laughing at me for that one. These are just a couple of those memories. We all shared in a lot of good times and bad, but I always loved and respected them both. They will be missed and always remembered with love and admiration for the time we all shared with them.

To the Gautreau Family:
It’s impossible to see beyond your pain, but look to good memories to comfort and help you today. Your heart and soul will find peace and happiness…that is what Tim & Madonna would want for all of you. May the blessings of God be upon you, may peace be always within your soul, may its essence illuminate your heart, now and forever. Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear. My heart is heavy and I will miss Tim and Madonna beyond words.

Tim's Canister with the "New Orleans Blend" coffee still sits in the break room right where he left it. In my mind I can still hear him say "hey Ralphie boy" like he did every morning he greeted me. I can still sense his presense at the morning meeting's with him sitting there eating his oatmeal or grits he use to like and making Timmy comments throughout.
It's not gonna be the same without him and Madonna here! Our company picnic's, crawfish boils and Christmas parties won't be the same without our favorite MC there. Let's not forget the Super Bowl Parties and football and basketball pots he would head up! Tim had a very large presense in life and he loved those kids, grandkids and Madonna! He would talk about them all the time and his pride always would show through. Tim was a great friend to work with and one of the smartest analyst's and programmers I have ever known! Tim will be missed here at work for all the value he brought to this job, his friendship and likeabilty!
God Bless Tim and Madonna's family in this time of sorrow and grief! May you find peace in His arms and comfort in the fond memories of your mom and dad! Our thought's and prayers are with you all right now!

Our deepest sympathy to Tim and Madonna's family. Tim was a spark everyday in our lives here at Entergy. He always brought fun, love and humor to every day work life and gatherings. He was one of the most giving people I have ever known. I would not know where to even begin to list all of the ways he has touched our lives. They will both be greatly missed.

Mom n Dad,
You have been the light of my life for my entire life. There has been a million times since Sunday i have grabbed my phone to call you and talk. I know you loved me and you were the best parents anyone could ever ask for. My brothers and I are closer now than we ever where, and I promise you both I will do my best as the oldest to be there for them as you would. I love you tremendously and will miss you both very much.

We are so sorry for the loss of Tim and Madonna, and we hold them and their family in our prayers. Tim and Madonna were wonderful to our family when we evacuated for Katrina, helping us many times and always offering to do more. At work, Tim was patient and kind and had a gift for explaining complex matters to those who did not share his expertise. And he always greeted one with a smile and a hug! We will miss Tim and Madonna deeply.
