Prayers and condolences for the family. I am so surprised and sad to hear of Big Tim´s passing. He was bigger than life in my youth and my dad always thought so highly of him. I miss NUCO and all the men I grew up with.
May the eternal light shine upon him and may he rest in eternal peace.
God bless,
Norm Jr. and the Czarnecki Family

Eternal Memories, We spent a lot of hours over those edm machines at NUCO. We had formed many friendships there but most are fading away, but the great memories will never be forgotten. May you rest in peace.
