Dear Cover family. I was saddened to hear of Tim’s’ passing. I always looked forward to him riding his bike to school and talking to him about old time trumpet players. He always had a kind smile and took time to talk to the old crossing guard. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Mr. Ed

i'm sitting here praying to God to somehow give me the words to express how i feel right now. very few times in my life have i been saddened as much as i am right now hearing of the passing of tim. my daughter dated tim in high school and i was always so proud that she had picked such an outstanding young man to date. when loren told me of tim's decision to join the air force i was both worried for his safety but also extremely proud that he chose to defend his country. i pray for tim's family in this extremely difficult time but please be proud of the outstanding young man you raised. i am so proud to have known tim and will miss him every day.

Although it seems impossible, God and the love of family and friends will carry you through this. All my love, Velda
