My dear little brother - it is much too soon, too sudden to tell you good-bye. We weren't ready. You are and will be sorely missed. I know you are with mother, grandmother and grandaddy and I find comfort in that. I still miss you - Timothy Toenail.

This is so unreal - I didn't get to say good-bye! Tim knew how much he was loved. My memories of him are a part of all I am...of who we all are. He impacted so many lives and I know that I know that I will see him again - like John Gowling said - Man, he beat us to Heaven. He's probably planning a fishing trip with Grandaddy. Timmy Toenail - I loved him so....

We'll miss your country boy common sense and your wry wit and humor. All annual fishing trips will now be lacking, but at the same time, your passing has bound us all a little closer as we have now glimpsed just how fleeting our lives and how quickly life vanishes.

Save us a spot in your boat; we'll all join you soon.

Tim,

You will be missed by us a great deal. It was a real pleasure knowing you and seeing you. You always were happy and had a smile on your face. Look forward to seeing you again one day.

I never saw Tim without a smile on his face. I will never forget his constant pout until I hoppped on his lap and gave him a huge hug! Everytime I drive my car I feel as if I have to say hello to Tim b/c he never wanted me to leave without giving him a kiss. Well Tim I will always think of you as I pull out of my driveway... I love you always and forever!:)

I will miss hearing you say "Hi Sweet's" You had an unconditional love for your friends and family, that will be missed. I was always touched by the love that you had for all of our children. There wasn't a thing you would not to for them. You will be in my thoughts and in my heart always.

Although we only had a brief chance to speak at one of our SCA meetings, Tim your contribution to our organization in its early days will not be forgotten. Wish we would have gotten that chance to fish together.

Tim was like a second father to me and I will never forget him for that.

Tim was like a second father to me. He had this way of letting you know that you were special to him without actually saying it aloud. We all know how he hated to make a fuss. The thing about Tim that I will always remember and miss is his full honesty. You may not have liked what he said but you never doubted him for a minute. He will always be in my heart and I hope to take a piece of his honesty with me. I learned a lot from him and for that I will always be thankful. I love you Tim and I'll see you around, every time I fish no doubt.

A quiet guy with a very loud heart, what can I say even in death you are making me pay attention, your magic is not lost, it may be awhile before I see you again but you will always be in my heart. There are very few true friends in your life that you can call and say help and without questions will say "you got it darling what do you need" I will see you later but you will never be far from my mind....

Tim could tell a story like no other. You could remember it days latter and your sides would hurt all over again.



Tim brought his love for fishing into the lives of most of us.
