I am completely shocked! Our parents were the best of friends. Tim and I were really good friends back in the day too. Climbing on roofs, cutting through Flynn´s, and general horse play - hanging out with Tim and Kathy was always great fun. Unfortunately, we all grow up and go our separate ways. However, whenever I stopped over at the house or ran into him, we always had a laugh and remembered the good times. RIP my friend and many prayers of strength to Al, Kathy, and Tommy.

As a 1987 class graduate with Tim, to the Conner family, my deepest sympathy out pours to the loss of Tim; Tim was one the most kindest, endearing, and kind hearted football teammate and classmate during the years we had opportunity to acquaint ourselves.
Though currently reside in Phoenix Arizona, memories may fade and become faint until recalled, but memories of the heart never dissolves from great times shared as a teammate and classmate of Tim at Waterloo West High Class of 1987, Tim was a class act, and I 'm quite glad we had acquaintance, may Tim rest in peace and in glory.
