To Tim's Family,
As a co-worker at Niagara Mohawk and then National Grid, I had the pleasure of knowing Tim when he started out as a Meter Reader and then progressed to Meter and Test. During his very early days as a meter reader, he read meters in the City of Saratoga. My grandmother referred to him as "Her Kevin" because he reminded her of her grandson/my cousin. Tim and I talked about that on many occasions. He was always friendly, kind, a hard worker, mild mannered, a gentleman, respectful, a pleasure to work with ...and had a great smile. I am sure you already know all these things about him but I just wanted you to know that others share this opinion of him as well. I'm so sorry for your loss - thoughts and prayers are with you all.
