Tim showed his passion for life through his amazing creative abilities. Yet the most important role that Tim possessed in my eyes was that of a loyal husband, supportive father, and giving friend. As others have mentioned, he had a love for the outdoors and his laugh really was enough to start a party. Sometimes it was like he knew the punch line before a joke was given. He had that twinkle in his eyes. The love of life will go on with Lou, Margeaux, and Sam. It's exciting to see Margeaux and Sam evolve. Tim with also be with you, you know. My heart goes out to you all.

Claude family-
What a great loss you are experiencing without your husband and dad around. Tim was such a wonderful man- a great father figure for me during some pretty formative years! I will always remember his warm greetings when I came into your house- sometimes unannounced- and the way he truly cared about me. The world has lost a great man. My prayers to God are with you all!

Lou, Margeaux and Sam.
So sorry for your loss. Tim was so gifted. The Doyle family has a couple of lasting tributes to his talent: a wood marketry piece of Chrys and a rug Tim and Lou made at my request. The Doyle family sends God's love to all of you. Affectionately: Wanda Doyle

Lou, Margeaux, and Sam,
Even though I had the honor of knowing Tim I want to write this for Dan because I know Dan would have wanted me to.
You are all in our prayers,
Leone’ & Jennifer Sweeney
Dear Lou, Margeaux, and my buddy Sam,
The times I spent with all of you are forever some of the greatest moments I could ever have hoped for in my life. All the times I spent with you Sam, (and sometimes Odie) bumming around the woods and with you and your Dad shooting guns was so awesome. Your family welcomed me into your home day after day and I just wanted to let you know that I am here for Tim. Remember the fun, and what a great guy Tim is and then move forward in your life like Tim would want you too. Before you know it we will all be back together. Pray for everyone, and keep your faith strong.
I Love you guys,
Dan Sweeney

I'm not sure if I told you before we left that we admired the way that you all cared for Tim during the last weeks of his life. You handled a physically and emotionally draining situation with poise and love. You should be proud. I'm sure Tim is.
Willy, Charlie, Chris and I felt bad that we weren't able to see the cabin with Tim but lucky that he was able to hold on so we could say goodbye to our friend. Things won't seem the same without him.
Thanks for the sweater Tim.

Lou, Margeaux and Sam,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Your family has been such an inspiration to ours. We were so blessed to have friends like you. May the days ahead be filled with memories of Tim, of his life that was so full of fun and laughter. Lou, it was such a joy to come and see you and Tim and hear some of his stories. I pray you will all find comfort in knowing Tim would want you to go on, being strong and keep looking to God for your strength. The days and even years will be difficult without him, but he will always be near to you in your thoughts and your heart.
We love you and pray for strength for all of you at this very difficult time.
Love, Roberta & Dwight McCullough

I am so sorry that Tim has passed away. I have many fond memories of him as I was blessed to be a part of your family growing up. He was a great dad & a loyal friend to my family. One thing I will never forget is his laugh. It was so contagious. He was tough when needed, but was full of love and joy for his family & life. I love you all & you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Tim's Creative mind led him down many paths professionally and personally. You never knew what new approach Tim would be taking about an issue, political or social when you spoke to him next.
He was a dedicated husband, father, friend and pet lover. As such all of his loved ones benefitted from his dedication. The Claude family is truly an inspiration as an example of unconditional love and affection.
His gutteral laugh was always a smile maker.
My condolences to Lou, Margeaux and Sam.
