A good and brilliant man of many talents whose dry humor often went unnoticed because it was not meant for others to hear so much as to simply comment on the hilarity, absurdity, and irony of this world. It was a privilege to know him. Now he is home. My sincere condolences to his family.

You were my friend and I will miss you. I'll think of you whenever I hear the X-Files theme the world is a more empty place without you. I am sad that you are gone selfishly but I hope you can now rest in peace.

Tim was a friend. We attended the same church previously where I had the privilege of acting in plays he both wrote and starred in. A great talent gone too soon. Much love to all his children, and condolences to the family.
