Happy birthday Tim. Had breakfast with Matt and my boys and were thinking and talking about you.

Tim, you and Dave were more fun than a kid should be allowed to have. Growing up with you and Dave are one of my fondest memories. I am sure if there is a band in Heaven, you are part of it! Say hi to Jimi and Stevie for me.

Tim was a awesome  friend he was a roommate back years ago some great stories could tell but he would give you his shirt of his back or his last dollar and smile while doing it !!  RIP you will be missed and  PS  : The wall of fame I think you beat me   🙏🙏❤️

Love transcends time and space ❤️

Happy birthday Tim 🎂

Love, Sherri

Here's a promo shot of The Wake, a power trio that Tim played in back in the early '80s.  Tim was an incredibly gifted guitarist and would leave people in jaw-dropping awe at the gigs they played.  He had a unique style, but I kinda thought of him as a cross between Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan.  I remember when Tim started playing guitar as a young teenager and within a couple years, he got really really good.  It kind of blew people away how good he became in such a short amount of time.  He was a prodigy, could listen to a song and play it pretty much note for note.  People loved to hear Tim play!

I was fortunate to play with Tim and Dave in a Christian band in the late 80's called Crimson Red.  Great times!

Words fall short, but I'm grateful for the time I got to spend with Tim, will cherish the memories and look forward to that day when I'll see him again.  We'll sing and shout the victory!

I enjoyed working with Tim at WL Contractors. He was kind to all his coworkers and always smiling and light hearted.
So sorry to hear about his passing . Prayers and condolences to his family and loved ones in this hard time.

Tim enjoying one of his mini vacations at Mount Rushmore.

Tim's love of the outdoors was captured with him being in deep thought and soaking in the sun! 

Tim would tell you..."It's not the destination, It's the Ride!"

All smiles when he rides!
One of his favorite sayings; "If I have to explain, you wouldn't understand!"

Tim, my dear friend, I never thought this day would come, but the Lord decided to call you home.

Words cannot express how devastated I am that I will no longer be able to talk or see you again in my lifetime. You had an amazing, beautiful spirit, that touched so many people.  Even though you faced many obstacles in your life, you always managed to have a positive outlook that was infectious to me and others. I thank you for being a great supervisor but most of all a great friend.

Tim, you are now free to explore the universe without any physical limitations. My regret is that I won't be able to hear about your new adventures. 

I will miss your distinctive voice, infectious laugh, and sense of humor. 

Thanks for the memories. Rest in peace and fly high my dear friend.
Love, Sherri
