I met Tim when I was 19, not long after losing my fiancé. I´m now 36 and we have been friends ever since. Tim also lost his fiancé at a young age. Recently he would say he shouldn´t have lived this long because of his heart condition as a child. I would immediately tell him to stop talking like that because I couldn´t bear the thought. Then proceed to check on his rest. Tim was the most compassionate hard working man. Tim loved his mom and daughter like no others. Tim always referred to his daughter as "Shorty" and regularly looked fwd to the day out with his mother. Tim was there for me and believed in me when I had nobody. I´m now a biochemist. He truly is/was/ and always will be my best friend. I´m devastated.
