I was seriously considering going over this Christmas to do some diving and see Tim. Godspeed Tim.
Fair winds and following seas. |

I saw this on CFOT and was heartbroken. He was definitely one of the good ones. RIP Tim

Talk about a shot in the gut. ..
Tim was the guy that did what every guy wishes they would have done. I was able to live that life vicariously through his wonderful posts. My only regret is not getting there to meet him. I shed a tear as I type this, again. You will be missed and my world will not be the same. God Speed Tim - Fk...... |

It was almost surreal having an unread message from him on here when I was able to get back in.
I didn't have the words when I first heard the news and I still don't. Just... |

What a bummer So very sorry to hear about Tim passing. As stated by many, he was good guy who we wished we had to chance to meet and hang out with.

There are very few instances when I hear things like this that make me cringe. This was one of those times. When I saw this on FB my stomach just dropped.
Tim was one of a very few people that I can say I am sorry I never got to meet. RIP brother. |

I recently found out that three years ago Tim did accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior after a conversation with another forum member here. This brings not only me joy, but also joy to his family in knowing that he is in Heaven now.
what does that actually mean, was he in some sort of trouble, please explain |

An idea I mentioned elsewhere was possibly sending a monthly amount to help out his wife and kids. I figured out what I could afford and although it isn't much, it is at least an amount that they will get each month until the end of the year. If enough people can do the same, maybe it will sustain them for a while. I wish I had more to give but I'm kind of thin these days.

I never met the man but I still feel like I've lost a good friend. One of my first interactions with Tim was the "play it forward" idea where he sent me some old Corvette manuals, all the way from the Philippians. I offered to pay some shipping and he wouldn't hear of it. God speed Timothy.

Spoke with Tims wife last night. Their monthly expenses are right at $400/mo.
Half of that is the monthly school costs and the other half is good and electricity costs.

A little better last night. She said he looks like he is just sleeping. The oldest daughter understands what is happening but the other kids keep saying that they think he is just asleep. I told her that I love her and that I will be here to help out. Also, I spoke with Tata and he said he knows how to keep the site running. I do have the login info for his sites and will check to make sure his names don't expire. I did see that she posted pics of Tim in his coffin this morning. Not sure how I feel about that but I know that is normal over there. He looks good. He can finally rest.

Rob, is there going to be a service or anything of that nature up here?
I know it's soon but have we considered an NCM block for Tim similar to Uncle P? I stopped by the museum on the way home with the new car. As I walked past Uncle P's brick it made me smile. I would love to see something like that for Tim as well. |

Maybe I can solicit some assistance from Bingo or Datawiz for helping design a memorial? As for a memorial service, I would love to get one together for anyone that can make it. I mentioned it also here I guess we need to get some thoughts on what kind of brick? Maybe something over at the NCM track since he was a racer? |
