I had seen Tim a few times over the years in the grocery store . But a few weeks ago , I passed by his room at Albany Med , and stopped in to visit . He was the same soft spoken kind guy , I knew from St. Mary´s School . That visit took us back to memories of being young again . It was nice to catch up with him. He spoke so highly about his family , kids and grand children. The entire time he had a big grin on his face . So sorry to his family for their loss . I will always have fond memories of him and when he was a fun loving student from my childhood. Anne ( Curran ) Barger
