Tim would laugh and joke with us anytime he had to stop in. He was a very socialable person.



We both got to know him over the years and are truly saddened by his passing.

Our prayers are with you Kalee. Tim was a great guy. We didnt know him as well as some people but did know him enough to know how special he was. To this day I have not seen anyone, other than Jacki and I, show Olivia so much genuine love. He was a wonderful friend and I regret not hanging with him more. I dont know what else to say, he was a great guy and will be deeply missed by many. God bless you Tim!
