Tim was one of the nicest guys and I'm so very sorry to hear that he lost his battle. He truly was a worker, a fighter, and a very personable man. I've known him for the 11 years at Chemung as he was very diligent in his delivers at Cornell's Statler Hall. Always so proud to talk of his daughters when they were born and when asked about them. He will be and certainly has been, missed by many. Keeping his family and friends in my thoughts and prayers.
