Tim is my daughter's father-in-law and my wife and I would visit with Tim and Ruby when we would come to NC. We became family. Tim and I had this laugh about a Saturday Night Live skit called "What's Up with That?" When Tim and I would meet the first words out of our mouths would be, "What's UP with That?" What's Up with That? Tim & Ruby are truly missed.

My sincere condolences to Ruby, their sons and family members.  I pray the Lord has his loving arms wrapped around you especially at this time.  
I first met Tim some 50 years ago in Roanoke, Va.  We spent many hours together traveling up and down Interstate 81 working together, countless other locations  and most recently in Charlotte.  Thanks you for so many memories "Timmy".  I look forward to seeing you once again my friend in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Ruby and the Jones family
Claire and I recently heard about Timmy's passing. Both of us send our sympathy and prayers. 
As time has passed,  each of our families have taken different paths
and now wish we had stayed in touch frequently.
Because of my long relationship with Tim dating back  over 70 years and with you, Ruby,over 60 of those years, a piece of my heart has
been broken.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and the boys.

I am one of many whose lives were touched by Tim ( and those closest to him may never know).  Tim came from his heart.  We crossed paths for extended periods at several points during my dental career.  He always found the time to help.  I came to love Tim, and I pray he is at peace as he continues to help others.

I am deeply grateful for the time we had with Tim, whose infectious enthusiasm and humor brightened our lives as a neighbor. His uplifting presence will be deeply missed.

Tim had a great sense of humor. We used to laugh about Saturday Night Live skits. One of his favorites was the skit "Whats up with that." We will miss him dearly and his sense of humor.
Pamela Jones is our daughter.
Sincerely,
Allen, Jean, and Izzy Brooks

This is one of our favorite photos of Tim.  He was the best neighbor, so caring for the people in our neighborhood, their children and grandchildren.  He once offered to take our grandsons to any kid movie that came out because he loved them too!  He loved his family and he was loved.

Tim was a great friend when we were in school he and I was on the golf team we were great friends hanging out with Timmy was so cool long ago he will be missed , may he rest in God's love and peace        Bob Carroll

We were very saddened to hear of Tim’s passing. He was one of the good guys. I had known Tim since 1975 as we worked together at Healthco. He taught me the Dental Business. Tim was one of the leaders that built the modern Dental Industry. He was always someone who would be there to help if you needed it. He was also a fun guy to be around. He always had a positive attitude in every thing he did. Over the years we had good times playing golf and going to Dental Conventions. We became very close over the years and we would have discussions not only  about work, but family and life as well. I know the love that Tim had for Ruby and their three sons.
Tim was a great guy, a great family man, a great friend. I am sure he is looking down on us now. He will be missed.

Ann and I are saddened to hear of Tim’s passing. I had visited Tim and Ruby my wife and I just a few weeks ago. Glad we were able to see him before his passing . Enjoyed Lexington BBQ with Tim and other family members. Ruby my niece  and I took a walk down memory lane. Tim and I shared over 60 years of friendship. A lifetime of memories too many to list now! Love u and Ruby now and forever. Yours In Christ! Mike and Ann Hardeman

I worked with Tim for 28 years. First years were art Healthco  Dental, then Sullivan Dental then finally at Henry Scheme Dental.  There was never a boring time as Tim was always upbeat and full of life. I have a lot of good memories of working with him.
Praying for Ruby, Tim Jr., Chris and Robert.  May God hold you in the palm of his hand and comfort you during this time of loss. I'm sure Tim can be found sitting at the feet of Jesus, our Savior and Lord.

I am deeply sorry for the loss of dear Tim.  He was always fun to be around and loved helping everyone.   He left quite an impression in the dental field.  He will be sorely missed❤️❤️🙏🙏
