Jean,
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. You are one of the kindest, most sincere and loving people I know. You deserve the happiness that you and Tim shared, not the heartache of yet another loss.
I love you and continue to remember you in my daily prayers.
Love, Kimberly

I worked with Tim at IBM and Computer Reports Company, as well as when he was a volunteer at the Chamber of Commerce. I enjoyed working with him in all those settings. He was inventive and creative. He treated all those who worked with him with respect. RIP, my friend.
