I just found out about Tim's Passing. I would like to express my sincere condolences to Luba and all members of Tim's family.
Tim was truly an outstanding broadcaster and I'm thankful to him for everything I experienced when we  worked together founding TV3 Russia.

Just found out today of Tim's passing, though I knew he was seriously ill.  So sorry for your loss.  We were neighbors at Glidewell & I was sad when the McDonald's moved from our area.  Barbara Randolph Parker

I am very sad to learn about Tim's passing.  He was the consummate professional and a real television leader.  I had the great privilege of getting to know him and work with him ten years ago when he was running INTH in Russia.  He will be very much missed.

Dear McDonald Family,
Sorry to hear the loss of Tim. I know he will be greatly missed. He was a kind and thoughtful person.
Melisa McLaughlin Murphy

I wish I could be there with everybody to share our cherished memories about Tim. Please accept my heartfelt condolences on your loss. I knew Tim via his sister Kathy, and therefore he always felt like an extended family member to me. On his each visit to Springfield, I remembered that he was full of energy, sense of humor, wisdom and great kindness. Everyone who ever met him would enjoy a moment with him. May memories of happier times sustain us during our time of sadness. We will forever love him and miss him.

I'm Tim's cousin, Ingrid.  My most vivid memory of Tim was when he paid me a surprise visit when I was a student at Mizzou.  All of a sudden, there he was at the door.  He took me out for dinner and told me about the TV stations he owned and how well he was doing.  He seemed happy and proud and I was amazed that someone my age could be so successful at such a young age.  I know how much his family loved him; when my sister Laurie and I visited Kathy and Heather in 2010, we heard such love in their voices when they talked about their brothers.  I am so very sorry for the tremendous loss all of you have suffered.  My heart is with you.  Ingrid Reininga Scott

I am very sorry for your loss. Tim was a great guy and I have fond memories of him from my childhood.

Wilma Jean & I were sorry to see of Tim's passing. Thank you for having it in the Springfield, Mo paper.  We were in 4-H together, as well as, school & community events.  Please pass along our love and sorry to Kathleen, Steve & Heather.  Many fond memories of their family.  Wanda Jo Carr Bumgarner

I went to school with Tim. Sorry to hear of his passing.

We are so saddened to hear of Tim's passing, Tim was a very, very dear friend to both of us. Our condolences to all of Tim's family. Tim was one of a kind, such a unique person, we have such wonderful memories of our friendship through the years. Tim will be greatly missed.
