Tim and I worked together at the VA Medical Center in Salem. God has gained a soldier for his army. Tim carried himself in a manner that let you know he was a man of God. Always greeted you with a smile and and a supportive coworker. He will be missed and I know his soul rest in peace in that secret place with our father who art in heaven. Condolences to the family.

Another childhood friend passes. From Gainsboro to Lincoln Terrace to Booker T. we remained friends. Only my transferring to Roanoke Catholic, and subsequently leaving Roanoke to go to Vietnam, and then out into the broader world did we lose contact. Still, the memories remain. Condolences to his family.

Deepest heartfelt sympathy to Tim's family and friends. He was a cornerstone for the class of '65. He was always willing to accept responsibility for our comfort. I can't imagine what it must have been like for him to endure such a long-term illness. But the love and devotion of his family carried him through. We are all grateful for that.

Tim Lovelace was a gentleman, a good man. He walked in honor and integrity, a trustworthy person. Kind, peaceful, giving of his time and resources to the LAHS Class of '65, Tim was the one we counted on to get things done. We will miss his smile, words of encouragement and just his presence as we go forward.
Becky and the Lovelace family, may the peace and comfort of God be with you in this time of mourning.

Ms. Rebecca, Roland, and Family,
Please accept our deepest sympathies. Tim was a dear friend, church and community leader. His commitment to the development and well being of our youth shall not be forgotten nor can it be replaced. We pray that the mantel which he bore will be taken up by others as the work of youth development and community building is not finished. In deed, in many respects, it has just begun.
With prayful thoughts and loving kindness, we remain,
Respectfully.

Rebecca, my sincere condolences to you and your family. I am so glad that I happened to see you earlier this week in the hospital parking garage. You spoke with me about the long and difficult journey Deacon Tim had been through over all the past months. He fought courageously and valiantly. God has now called his truly amazing faithful servant home for eternal rest. May the God we serve give you and your family comfort and strength in the midst of your grief.

Rebecca...I am so sorry to hear of your husband's passing but I know that even though I haven't worked with you for years at Anthem, your husband's love for God was unwavering as is all of your family's faith. I know that you all served the Lord, trusted in the Lord and believed in the Lord. You were forever giving credit to God for all your blessings in life. I am sad that I won't get anymore of sweet potato pies but I was blest to have known what they tasted like. May God be with you and your family during this difficult time and may your find peace in knowing that you will see him again. Love and prayers Tammy Wade Falls .
