Tim Havlat

I can´t believe this is the same Tim I had the honor of teaching in fifth grade. He was so intelligent, he tested my competency as a teacher by my having to have a special math curriculum for him way beyond fifth grade. What was most amazing about Tim was his modest, unassuming attitude towards his brilliance as a student and learner. I will always remember his kindness.

What a good and kind man. He cared about people deeply and will be greatly missed.

I met Tim in Honduras. He was very a very wiseI young man. I always remember him as such a mart, kind, always wanting to help other in need. I am very sad for this loss. Much love from the BECA volunteer. Fly high angel.

I met Tim while volunteering with him in Honduras. He was always a solid, calming presence who brought people together. His genuine care and concern for his students was apparent, as he consistently went above and beyond in his duties. I know he made a lasting impact on his students, teammates, and friends during his season in Honduras.

Tim was so mellow. I respected him a lot and enjoyed his company. He definitely humbled me at times and I often think about what he said by the campfire. Thoughtful, gentle and magnanimous.

Tim was wise beyond his years. He helped ground others as they were figuring out their place in this world. There are a lot of communities feeling this loss right now. My prayers go out to all of the families and individuals grieving. But, heaven has a new angel.

A terrible loss of a wonderful young man. I wish I had known him. I wish the best for Tim´s family, that this loss keeps them even closer to each other.

I remember in 8th grade we had to write research papers for Ms Bedel´s english class and we could pick any subject we wanted. Tim and I both independently chose to write about the platypus, so we had competing presentations. Ms Bedel was not amused but we were. He was always a good friend and will be greatly missed.

I learned a lot from Tim when I started out as a PM in this industry. Such as more information the better, the communication. With that his patience helped me to grow as a person at work and in life. He was definitely a friendly face I always looked forward to seeing when I did.

Tim was one of the first people I met while starting my new job .
At the time I had some some family issues that just arose and my focus wasn't in perspective. I shared a bit of what was happening at the moment with him.
His patience ,understanding and thoughtfulness was a blessing.

I went to school with you from first grade through high school
I remember you were incredibly good at math

The three times I met Tim here in Brazil, he was always very sweet, friendly, respectful to everyone... and of course very loving to Mari.
We were very happy to have met him in a café in São Paulo and there he told us how he met Mari... My heart was filled with joy, because I knew that my friend had indeed found the love of her life... And I was also sure that he had also found his true love.

I believe in the power of God's Holy Spirit who comforts hearts.

May the whole family receive our prayers and affection. You will always be in our hearts.

I always enjoyed conversations with Tim. Such an interesting, kind hearted, and intelligent man. I remember growing up playing soccer with him and I´m glad to know he lived a full life. - Matt

Tim was a beautifully giving soul. The day he officiated our daughter´s marriage to his best friend was a day of hope and beauty in joyful fellowship. Our hearts and prayers go out for strength and direction to all those whose lives have been so deeply affected by his life here and his entry into Eternal Life. To God be all Glory and Honor, and Peace to His people on earth.

He was a wiz at cards & games. He taught in Honduras and he drove people to polls to vote in the elections.
