In the big scheme of things, I only recently got to know Tim during the past few years. From first we met, it was evident that he shared the charm, wit and genuineness of the Dent men. Tim, you had a great laugh. It will be missed but it will live on with your spirit in our hearts forever. Much love to you in heaven and to Terry, Melissa and your mom here on earth. Anastasia

I had the pleasure of meeting Tim 20 years ago by working for him doing drywall as needed. I was invited into his home and met his wife Terry. Tim was a funny and talented craftsman everything we did together had to be just right. My deepest Sympathy goes out to his whole family. Tim I will see you in Heaven. Rest In Piece!!
