Tim and I had the greatest summer memories as teenagers when I was in visiting my cousin. It took us 50 years to reconnect and I am sorry it took that long. I will miss him dearly.
He was very proud of his family. You were blessed.

I'm so sorry to learn of Tim's passing. He was a great guy. He was always so friendly whenever we ran into each other. I remember his Camero he had in high school and he gave me a ride in it. That was when I fell in love with that car. I also remember cutting up with him in study hall. My sympathies to the family.
