I'm sorry to hear of Tim's passing. I pray God will bring you through your time of sorrow. I have thought of him often over the years. Ernie never calls home that he doesn't ask if we've seen him or know how he's doing. Ernie loved Tim like a brother. I am truely sorry he's gone.

Uncle Tim i love u and your memory will forever be a keepsake from which i will never part, cause god may have u in his home but i will forever keep u deep in my heart! i will never forget u xx00 TT
