Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you today and in the days to come. We heard of Tim's passing today in church and did not know he had been in the nursing home. Stan liked Tim and maybe, now, they are both telling jokes and laughing with each other. Our family is sorrowed by his passing and wish we could ease your pain. Linda, please let the church know if we can help in any way.
