Tim was a great guy . Very funny sense of humor . He was one of the most popular people in our class. So glad he made it to the 50th reunion. My sympathy to Sherry and his family . He will be greatly missed .
As we were growing up I used to go to Tim's house to hang out, I was always amazed at the number of comic books Tim had under the bed, in the closet, in boxes and on the floor. He loved to read those Comics!
In those days our main mode of transportation was the bicycle. We all had the normal one speed Schwinn, then on day Tim showed up with this new fangled 'English 3 Speed'! We would always race from place to place, as we hunched over, white knuckled our handle bars putting maximum power to the pedals, Tim would come whizzing by hands off the handle bars, siting up straight, staring at us with this S*** eating grin on his face, not saying a word! I can see him now in my minds eye, what a hilarious picture.
I was so happy I was able to reconnect with Tim and reminisce over days gone by, smiling at our antics and episodes. He will be forever in my heart and memories.
My deepest sympathy to Sherry and the Family, Tim will be sorely missed.
I was trying to answer your comments individually, website did not allow me to. Please let me take a moment of your time to thank so many classmates that have sent cards or posted photos on FB about Tim. We have laughed, we have cried, and I have all of them hanging up so I can read them as well as other people stopping in. Tim was not a funeral, or obituary type guy. His hope was people would celebrate and laugh about good ole days... he definitely did not believe an obituary should list his accomplishments but how he looked at life with humor.
Tim talked about meeting up with so many friends and was so interested in their lives and what they were doing now when he came home from the reunion. He kept testing me with photos, asking who is this person... bet you don't know😊 I sincerely thank you all for your cards, pictures, so very kind words also the cards are still coming in which gives us an opportunity to smile.
After 40 years, I am not sure what comes next, but from our hearts, myself and family, thank you for your support and the memories, they are all priceless to us.
Our life's experiences and losses of our dear friends and Classmates starts getting very personal as we mature especially when we have lost 4 this year. Personally my intimate circle has been shattered this year with the passing of Tim since he was always in my memories going back to grade school and throughout High School. He married one of our favorite Class Ladies and we are all in shock and want to try and express our deep sympathy to Sherry and her Family at this very sad Loss of one of our very best.
