A tribute from Tim to some dear Friends that speaks of his true personality and loving nature as a person:

“Something brushed across my brow today and lightly caught me, made me pause. Without a thought, I shrugged it off, no search for a reason, no question for a cause. Back about the long day’s tasks, should I have wondered or stopped to ask? Certainly not, it was nothing, back about my dreary task. Shortly after drudgery done, another day’s battle fought and won. Somehow, some way, tedious trying every day, we battle our demons and find a way. Wounded, weary, tired now, yet always knowing in my mind and heart, a long day’s journey was worth the struggle right from the start. I gather myself, settled now, then something brushes across my brow. This time though, it wasn’t a passing breeze. Now I notice. It stops me now right in my tracks. I stop and freeze. In a blink of an eye I’m brought to my knees. Suddenly somber, passionate sorrow, I question myself, are the morals I preach shallow and borrowed? The moments we share are suddenly clear. Your laughter and passion were a mask for your fear. Early today something touched my brow. It was certainly you; I realize it now. You were telling me, begging me to love and not doubt, to always hold on when a friend reaches out”
