I was so sorry to hear of Tim's passing.

I was Tim's Mac Tools Distributor.

Tim was always full of life and loved telling of his golf expeditions at Coeur d'Alene and salmon fishing trips.

Seeing I am also from the east coast we had alot in common.

Tim loved fishing and gave me many tips to use when fishing with my boys. He loved to give us his smoked salmon, (although it rarely made the trip home), but he also gave me his recipe to try on my own.

Tim was a stand up kind of guy with a great heart and love for life.

He will be greatly missed by all who knew him!

May he rest in peace with the lord.



Respectfully,

David Alger
