November 15, 2010

I thought of you today as I often do. Time has passed but the feeling of loss has not. I hate that you were taken from us so soon. Still hoping justice will prevail.

November 2, 2010

I am really happy this is still up and running. You have been on my mind alot lately. I so wish I could pick up the phone and talk to you rather than looking up at heaven and hoping you can hear me. You are so missed and loved still by so many.
Again I wish you were still here. I love you my friend

May 31, 2010

On this Memorial Day I have thought of you and your Daddy so much, even though neither of you were veteran's, it is a national day of grieving. I miss you both so much. Love, Mom

May 4, 2010

Thought about you on your birthday which is also my son's birthday. Still think about you often and miss you forever. Your friend, Judy

February 1, 2010

I can't believe you have been gone two years. Every year on the same week I go on a hunting trip and I will always remember that's when my mom called me and told me you were missing. I think about you every day and I always will. I miss you very much, thanks for being my friend. Todd "Biscuit" Compton

It's hard to imagine it's been two years. I can still remember the day you and I were at "The Galley". It was 9/23/2007 and in many ways it was a typical Bucs game for you and I except for one detail. You and I met my soon to be wife. Allison and I have plenty to be thankful for and your presence will for sure be felt in our lives FOREVER. Allison has twin boys and I know for a fact they would of been so proud to call you "Uncle Chip". Keep shining down on us Chip! We Miss you!

Theresa Gibson

January 27, 2010

Words can not express how much you are missed. You are always in our thoughts and missed day after day. I so miss your smile that brighted up the room as soon as you entered. You will always have a place in our hearts Chip. Thank You for being my friend.

January 27, 2010

Thinking of you on the anniversary of the day you were taken from us. Remembering what a special person you were and hating that someone took your smile from us. I can only imagine how hard things must be for your mom because two years later I still feel every bit as sad and angry as I did two years ago. I pray for justice. We miss you Chip!!

Brett "Big Guy" Johnson

January 27, 2010

Its been 2 years now and i cant believe how the time has passed. Not a day goes by where your not in my thoughts. From the moment we met we hit it off and became great friends....and you had that effect on alot of people! Keep shining down from above brother and keep me going strong....cause when we meet up again my friend...that will be my final song. To Judy and family & all loving friends...keep all the great memories of Chip going..cause thats what makes us all stay strong!!

Closing in on the second year. your picture still remains on the fridge. You are missed and loved by soo many.I pray for your family a lot. we all miss you. you will always remain with us. And I know that you are guiding us towards closure, because you are with the Lord, as well as your Dad, and I feel that the three of you will guide us to the truth and all the answers. None of us will ever stop fighting for you.

January 11, 2010

A friend of mine noticed your picture that i have of you today and for the next hour i told him about conversations that we have had, funny things that you had did and overall just what a great guy you were. It's days like today that breaks my heart and i miss you so bad. I Pray for your mom and family as the second year is closing in. Judy C.

I still have a hole in my heart where Tim made his place. I miss him, and think of him often. I saw James Taylor in Red Rocks, Co., and heard him sing John Andersons "Seminole Wind". I know Tim heard it from heaven and loved it.
A few months ago I awoke to what I thought was one of my daughters touching my shoulder. When I opened my eyes...it was Tim standing there. He was standing next to the bed with his "Tim" smile. He looked so happy and peaceful. He just stood and smiled and "glowed". I know he is in a wonderful place, and at peace now. I still miss his physical being, but feel a small sense of peace after seeing him and knowing he is HAPPY. I wanted to share my experience with the rest of his friends and family. I hope it will spread peace and perhaps a smile to anyone who is missing him.

Timmy, today is our 2nd year without you on this Thanksgiving. I truly thought it would be easier than last year, but it is worse. It is finally becoming real that you are really not here anymore. But, at least I know you are with your Daddy and you are both "pigging" out. I wish you could hold your new great-nephew Timothy Richard, watch over him and all of us. We all love you and miss you. Mom

November 23, 2009

I had a dream about you last night. Man it was good to see you again. It was so real... I miss you terribly and want justice for you and your family. Sorry the Bucs are not doing good this season. See who you can talk to about that!! I will be thinking of you on Thursday, we always go around the table and give thanks and I want you to know I am thankful that you came into my life- you were and are my friend. Love you Chip

November 8, 2009

Today is November 8,2009 and time does nothing to ease the pain. I still think of you often with your picture beside my bed. Will be glad when they catch who is responsible for this, but it still wont bring you back. I pray often that the people that love you will see you again one day. Love and miss you Judy

Melissa Anello

October 17, 2009

A piece of my heart will always be broken over the loss of you. Maybe the day justice finally occurs, some of that can heal. There is so much anger and frustration that no one has paid for this. Hope your Mom is staying strong. I know you and your Dad are up there looking out for her. Miss you!!!!

I miss you!!!!!!!

August 3, 2009

Like so many this page is good to still feel like I can talk to you. I still have your phone number memorized and so many times I almost forget and go to call you. It doesnt feel real. Jen, Frank and I were out together and we had a drink for you. Frank and I were in tears and Jen was almost there. Then we started cracking up knowing you would have not wanted any of us sad. We started sharing memories of you all happy of course. I miss you and love you so much we all do. I love the last post from Judy. Sounds just like something you would say!! A hot mom :-) We love you xoxo

June 25, 2009

Tim, you have been my mind lately. So often throughout the day something reminds me of you. From a song on the radio or just memories of loved ones gone to a better place. Hearing George Jones,Ronnie Milsap and Tim McGraw brings me to tears. Those silly lines that you would use [You could kiss the ground in the winter time and make a flower grow] It took me a second to realize that was in a song and then i smacked you. I LOVED to see you happy. You were so loved by so many and you have left an lasting impression on the one's that really knew you. Shannon and I Were just talking about you last night [and we know you are enjoying listening]. It really feels good to be able to leave our feelings on this page. Please tell my Mother that I love and miss her also [I remember showing you a picture of her and you said she was HOT]haha Until we meet again. LOVE YOU LIKE A FAT BOY LOVES CAKE [another one of your sayings] Your friend alway JUDY

Happy Birthday my brother! You were someone who came into my life....and I thank the lord for that every day. You are on my mind all the time and you make me a stronger person. I have been playin the guitar alot since you have gone and I will tell you what buddy....I'm sounding pretty damn good! You are right next to me when I play and will always be right there next to me for as long as I live. There is so much I want to talk about right now but I could keep on goin for a long time. So I will just say to you my brother....I have had alot of people come into my life that I have cared about and you were such a big part of my life....you were my long lost brother. We hit it off from the first time we met...two peas in a pod. I love you and miss you and will see you when god has a plan for us to reunite....Until then, you and your dad keep catchin those fish up there, cause i know you guys are just havin a good ole time. I know it took me so long to write something on here but thats not cause I wasn't thinkin about you. It was because I could'nt keep my composure. I know...im the big guy and big guys dont cry....but this big guy sheds tears of happiness when he thinks about you. Happy Birthday my bro, and to Mamma Chipley and the rest of the family.....have a great day on this special day!

Timmy,today you would have been 36 years of age. We all miss and love you so much. Most of the family will be at Jeannie's and David's for a fish grill (providing David and Pierce catch any fish).

Ill be planting a yellow rose this morning in your rose garden up here.

This is still not really real to me I know you're not with us but with your Daddy and I miss you both so much.

I love you, Mom

Chip,
I have spent the past hour reading all the wonderful messages on here about you. I am filled with emotions from sorrow to joy. I will always miss, but never forget your energy, passion and smile. Everyone we meet in life has some impact on us and I truly believe I am a better person for having known you. Rest in peace brother and I look forward to seeing you again on the other side.

Todd "Biscuit" Compton

I can't believe it's been a year. I still think about you everyday and think about all the good times you, Sprad, Riggio, and I used to have. Those are good memories. It could be 1 year or 100, I will never forget you. You were a special person and I will never understand how you could be taken from us like this. I'll see you agian someday Chip, until then, keep the beer cold.

Judy Campbell

February 2, 2009

The last time we spoke was Christmas and i can't believe it's been a year, I think of you often and wish that they can find justice for you and all the people that you have touched. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers. Love you forever

February 1, 2009

Today is a year since they found you. My heart still breaks one year later. I think about you everyday. I am so angry that someone would choose to take you from us but I have no doubt that that someone will be brought to justice. In the meantime, we will remember your charismatic personality, your beautiful smile, your kind heart and all of the wonderful memories that we each cherish from our short time with you. We all miss you and love you! You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.

Theresa Gibson

January 29, 2009

Chip- I am so very sad that it has been an entire year since you left us. It feels like 10. Teri & I miss seeing you walk through our doors with that beautiful, infectious smile. You are missed more than you know. I am honored to call you my friend and to have known such a sweet soul. I pray everyday that justice will be served. My heart goes out to your family & friends on this anniversary.

Teri "Chica" Brown

January 29, 2009

Its official. One year. damn where did the time go? We havent forgotten you. at all. It makes me sick to my stomach. However, i think you would want us to carry on and I know that God will lead us to some sense of closure, as frustrating as it may be. I feel you are in an amazing peaceful place side by side with your father. I think thats what ensures your mothers strength. I cant imagine. we tell stories about you still. always will. Im thankful for have known you. And though we may not solve this mayhem, we are puttimg our best foot forward. and we will not rest until all is resolved.

Shannon Holt

January 18, 2009

Your face and laugh still inprinted in my heart and will never be forgotten. We all miss you dearly! Still praying for justice!! Until we meet again.....I LOVE YOU!

Chip, Friends, and mostly, his family, a lot has changed in the past year. people have grown apart and moved on. i know that Tim has not been forgotten. He kept a lot of people together that are not as close now like they were. Hopefully we can all meet up again and celebrate "Chip" as his one year departure closes in on us. It truly was an honor to have known him and the amazing friends and family he was surrounded by.

December 5, 2008

Chip we miss you buddy..I think they are getting close to bringing justice..you were truly a genuine guy.. we miss you lots bro

I can't believe it's been nearly a year. I was just thinking of you, and for some reason reading these entries makes you seem not so far away. We all still think of you often and miss your smile!

November 27, 2008

Today is the first Thanksgiving without you. We all missed you very much. We were at Alma with all of the gang, and we all talked about you and your Daddy, and know you are at peace and happy the BUCS are winning. I'll never forget you. Mom

November 25, 2008

Chip- Just as everyone else, I miss you so much. Everytime I am at Jen and Frank's house and see your pictures I am brought to tears. Anytime I see a man who looks remotely close to you my heart sinks and I want to call you and talk to you. I want to do those silly drive by's at Nuccios to see you wave at me as I drove by. I miss seeing your red beater out front every morning. I miss you terribly as we all do. I hope as everyone else that justice is served. Someone posted please guide us - I think that everyday. I miss you so much Chip and you are not forgotten. There are too many memories and fun times to ever forget you. Till we meet again one day. I love you

Teri "Chica" Brown

November 21, 2008

Hey buddy. Your picture remains on my refrigerator. I refuse to remove it until justice is served. you are not forgotten.. at all. I pray that your at peace, with your father, helping your beautiful, strong mother put the pieces together. i believe we all have an idea what happenned. we may me right, or wrong. Please guide us. it was an honor to know you as well as your friends. The place you were comfortable to be should have never of been the last place you were seen. We remember every second of you being there that night. Your smile, what you wore, your goodbye. Just not how you left. That kills Teresa and I , till this day. You have an amazing family, and friends. God willing, all will be resolved..

October 23, 2008

We are rolling up on a year since you left all of us. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you or remember some silly thing you did. I just got married on the 4th of October and I remembered what you asked me when I told you I got engaged. You asked me if I really love him. I told you I did and you said, "then I know you will be happy." Chip I am really happy. You were such a dear friend to me and it is hard for me to not be able to pick up the phone and give you a call and say hi. There have been several times when I wanted to do just that. It is so hard to see life moving on without you but I know I have to. Chipie . . . even though you are gone you will ALWAYS live in my heart. I will forever remember you!

I am speechless. I have been trying to get ahold of him for so long and tonight decided to google his name and see if there would be another way to contact him. If someone would please email me and tell me what happened. I loved Tim and thought of him everyday. my email is [email protected]

Your Daddy is with you now, and I know you are really enjoying each other and wouldn't be any other place. We love and miss you so much, it is still hard for me to know that you are really gone from this earth. Give him a big hug for me he'll be hugging you too. We will all be together someday.

I will always love both of you, and never forget.

I just got this tragic news tonight and I was so shocked. I am truly sorry. I knew Chip from the Winter Haven Golds and he was hilarious. He always made me laugh. I liked him so much. We still talked off and on but I missed him. I will truly miss him now. Chip, my mom just got to Heaven December 6th so maybe you guys will run into each other. Hug each other for me.

Shannon Holt

May 27, 2008

I often think of all the crazy little things that you used to do to me at work, bottles turned upside down on the line, notes to me from you taped to the bottles, LOL! The way your smile would BRIGHTEN anyones day. The way you could finish my every sentence. How about this, the game....NAME THAT TUNE! Judy and Joe used to play that with us as well. I play "Ronnie Milsap"over and over just to feel close to you! I know, sounds crazy.....but Tim, thats the effect you had on not just myself, but EVERYONE!! You were a awsome person that WILL NEVER be forgotten. On May 2, I wrote you a note, stuck it in a balloon with a pic. of you, me and Aunt Judy K and let it go, in hopes that someone finds it and it brightens they're day, just as you have brightened so many lives! Happy belated Birthday, the big "35". We will always love and miss you,Tim!!!!!

tim
I can remember all those good days playing basketball and running the show. At least thats what we thought, we did hold our own pretty well. Every Sunday at the bucs games won't be the same. Meeting at the south end zone and getting goose bumps as we watch the planes go by. You were one of my best friends and I will never forget you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you. You were the nicest and best friend anyone could have.You are missed so muched. Hit a jump shot and a home run up there, so when we meet again we can run the courts like the good old days.

I was very sad to hear of your passing. When I heard the name on the news I had to rewind and there you were on the screen. I could not believe it. We met in the 6th grade at Lockhart, and graduated from Chamberlain just like so many others who wrote here. I always thought you were such a cutey. You were truly one of the good guys and you will greatly be missed. Even though I have not seen you in over 15 years, it is still hard to believe that I will never see you again. My condolences to your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Chip, your family and your friends. I was very saddened to hear the news. I met Chip in Winter Haven back in 2002 and honestly the last time I saw him was in 2003. He was a great guy, very sweet and funny. I enjoyed being around Chip and will definitely miss him. God Bless you and your family.

Chipley~ you were a very special person to all and we really can not comprehend the tragic loss. It has been very difficult to read all of the touching memories that you have blessed the many of family and friends with over the 34 years of your life.
Tommy and I look back and can only laugh and smile talking about the memories that we have shared with you! We met at PCC where you played ball and we had mutual friends, when I went to WSC you and several of the baseball players ended up there too. It was great to know I new someone “you” that could introduce me to other people at WSC. I met Tommy through you and we just celebrated our 10 anniversary. We all shared some great times, you and Tommy were roommates for about 3 years and he and I both have great stories to share, from “fish out of water”, to the “wild hog”, “leaving chicken bones on the couch after coming in after 3am & leaving the front door wide open” and we all can picture the “blue flopper w/ an ax handle behind the seat to keep the seat up”…and of course me doing all your Science projects for Dr. C’s classes!! Anyone from WSC could tell a story but your stories were always the best because you always had a great story about “one of your buddies”…..We will miss you Chipley!!
Please know that we will always have you in our heart and we will always see your smile! Our thoughts and prayers to the Chipley Family and to all his friends, we hope to meet again in Heaven!

Tim,I can still remember playing football at the bus stop before school in 6th and 7th grade. I really can't believe that your gone. I know we have lost touch for awhile, but your name was always mentioned from some crazy story from the past. You will be missed my good friend and in my prayers.

Tom Patton

February 19, 2008

Chip,
I know it sounds cliche, but it does seem like yesterday that we were playing side by side back at Warner. To say you were a great guy doesn't really do justice. To me you were an upbeat, dedicated, hilarious friend. I'd see you every once in a while and it was like we just spoke. I will never forget your John Anderson Seminole Wind Impersonations on road trips or when you would have the whole team laughing with the fish out of water routine. If you were part of either of those two experiences, you know exactly what I'm talking about! Tim you truly did think about others which is why you touched so many. I know you are in a better place. My best wishes to Chip's family in this tough time.

I CANNOT PUT INTO WORDS HOW DEEPLY SADDENED MY HEART FEELS. TIM WAS A LONG TIME FRIEND AND A UNFORGETTABLE PERSON. WE HAD THE BEST TIMES PLAYING BALL & SPENT COUNTLESS HOURS IN THE BATTING CAGES TRYING TO HIT THE FASTBALL.I GIVE MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO HIS FRIENDS & FAMILY. HE WILL BE MISSED SO MUCH BY ALL WHO KNEW HIM. HEAVEN WILL HAVE A GREAT NEW BALLPLAYER TO JOIN THE TEAM.

First I want to express my deepest sympathies to Tim's family. I can't image even a little bit what you all are going through. I must say I am STILL in shock. I knew Tim from Chamberlain. My memories of him leave me with nothing but a big smile and a chuckle. He could always make me laugh. But he was also the type of guy that looked you in the eye. He was solid and real. They don't make men like him anymore. So to hear of his passing has left me, as well as all of us, with so many questions...WHY? All I know is that Tim was a friend to all he met and in the end he has helped to reconnect a lot of us that lost contact with each other over the years. I think he would have loved that he had something to do with us all coming together. So here’s to you Tim. I know you can feel the love we all had for you. Rest now knowing you touched EVERYONE who knew you. May this be a lesson to us all. I know it is for me. I will never forget you.

I have the fondest memories of Tim from junior high and high school. We were always friends, but unfortunately we had lost touch over the years. Your sweet smile and easy-going ways will be missed. I have forgotten so many things from those times. However, one of the things that I remember clearly was a sweeet and innocent kiss that we shared one day after school, many years ago. It was a sweet moment between two friends that I will always cherish. I will miss you Tim!!! You were always a gentleman!

To Tim's Family,
My deepest sympathies-

Dear Chipley family,

Our prayers go out to you all now and in the days to come. We have two young boys and they didn't know Tim, but knew that Mommy and Daddy lost a friend. We group up in Forest Hills and attended Young, Adams, and Chamberlain with Tim. Our youngest said, "Chip is in Heaven and the baseball fields are way better up there". Looking forward to seeing that contagious smile go up to the plate again. May you find peace in knowing you raised a gentlemen that meant so much to so many. Blessings -

Dear Richard and Judy,

I am saddened to hear of your tragic loss. I'm so glad this guest book was created; although I didn't know Timothy, my first cousin once removed, I believe, I can certainly see his father in him. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this bewildering time.

Your cousin
