Linda & Cabel,
As we drove home today, we knew without a doubt that we had truly lost a special friend whom we would mourn for many days and months to come. We were in awe at the crowd gathered last night at the funeral home and the MANY lives Tim had touched. The service was beautiful and the gentleman who sang..please tell him that touched our hearts. Tim would have been so proud of both of you ~ God bless and keep you until we meet again. We love you.

Mrs. Linda & Cable,
What an honor it was to know Tim and be his friend. Tim was such a loving, thoughtful, compassionate person who did so much for others without ever wanting recognition for his deeds. As an employee of ASB in Byron we had a running joke between us and each day Tim would come into the bank and sit at "his desk" to conduct business. I will miss seeing his smiling face come through the door each day to sit at his desk. Tim was a blessing to me and to my son Brock. We are thankful we were able to cross paths and we are honored to be one of Tim’s many friends. May God, your family, and your friends surround you with love, support, and wonderful memories in the days ahead. The John Deere theme was just perfect, in honor of our friend Tim; we will be wearing John Deere green tomorrow.

Linda and Family,
I am so saddened to hear of Tim's passing. I've been out of town and when Carolyn Watson called, I was shocked. Tim was the ultimate Gentleman, always so friendly and complimentary. He knew just the right thing to say and do to motivate others. His contibutions to the community will never be matched. God Bless.

Mrs. Linda, Cabel and Family,

I've always known the family through growing up with Cabel, however, as luck would have it, about 10 years ago, I got to know Mr. Tim through business and my job at Lamar Advertising. From that first day onward, I knew what a SPECIAL man he was. As our business relationship continued, so did our bond. I felt like he had adopted me as one of his own from the very start. Of course we would have to talk about business, but that was never the main topic. Mr. Tim Loved to talk about his family, and I could tell how much he Loved you so. In fact, the last time we spoke, he told me about giving Cabel his surprise Birthday present, and how very proud he was of Cabel. Most of the times we spoke, before we parted ways, he would always tell me he Loved me, and everyone that knows him knows you just couldn't help but Love him back. Mr. Tim was a man of steadfast Love and devotion, to his Faith, his Family and to everyone around him and he will be remembered always by many. Mrs. Linda and Cabel, my heart and prayers go out to you and I pray for God to give you strength and surround you with His Love and Comfort as only He can.

Lifting the Family up to Him,

Shane Crutchfield Bledsoe
