Tim was an adventurer and traveled extensively to Russia, Morocco, Greece, Turkey to name a few. His favorite was London and always found new sights to see. He loved the National Parks and was a true nature lover. There was no mountain trail or church tower too high to climb. He was co-founder of Illustrated Verdict, a medical illustration company which he took great pride in and poured his heart and soul into. Always up for a good time be it in Boston, NYC, Key West or just at home hosting Thanksgiving and the annual Christmas party. His smile and laugh were infectious.
