I'm still in shock as I read the paper and found out about Timmy.  We lived as neighbors for probably the first 13 or 14 years of my life.  I'll never forget the tree houses or forts that me, Timmy, Chance, Debbie and Chad and Beth built or all the nights playing monsters! Thanks Timmy for making our lives all a little funner and even for the times you drove us nuts.  I'll never forget our childhood, that was the fun days.  My thoughts & prayers go out to you Debbie, Aunt Dollie Chance And Jimmy.

Tim, you were the very best friend to my brother Jimbo. You were like a brother to him. You were also such a good and patient man with my mother,(who passed away a few weeks prior to Tim.) My mother would call the house and you would help her figure out the TV remote on several occasions and walk her thought it. My mother just loved you. Thank you Tim for your patience! Thank you Tim, for being a great friend to my brother and helping him in so many ways.You touched many lives. God Bless you Tim. Our thoughts and prayers to your family and friends.

May your faith bring you comfort and hope in your sorrow, may God walk beside you in every tomorrow. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I was blessed to have been a part of your life. Love and prayers to your family.

My best friend of the last 12 years, my brother and roommate for the past 8 years, has enhanced my life in a amazing way.  We would stay up so late talking about the past and especially when he was overseas talking about orders and the military and great buddy's like Country. I  know first hand, he was a Great Man, and a friend I can Never replace. God Bless You TIM, and Thank You for being the person you are!!!~ Love JIMBO

So sorry for your loss. Our prayers & thoughts are with the family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, dear ones.  We love you!  "From the ends of the earth I cry out to you, when my heart is overwhelmed.  Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For You have been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.  I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings."  (Psalm 61:2-4)

My mind is lost in the past today. Thinking about homecoming and prom, football games, Crescent Beach, hanging out under the Barge Canal Bridge, racing on Lundy Road, Burnout, and camping in the forest.....we were inseparable. The fun teenage years that you'll never forget, the years before you had to grow-up! Remembering the friends who were there, the ones you laughed with and cried with. The ones you're still friends with, the ones you left behind. Until we see each other again.....goodbye to my first love. You have given me a wonderful son and I am grateful. RIP Timmy Dowling

Love to you always, Sandy Raburn
