My favorite memory is when I was 13 and Uncle Melvin and Aunt Babe hosted a family reunion at their home in Ohio. Tim was so much fun, he was always full of laughs and practical jokes. He would challenge us to run threw the apple trees with no shoes on. I can smell the rotted apples on the ground, Tim laughing wildly as he ran in front of us- his hair bouncing. The smiles and fun of a young man free in nature.
