Thanks Tim for the great memories we had back in Grade School. I will always remember your kindness and your laughter. You were my best friend and you will always be in my thoughts.

Timmy - Adriene and I were just reminiscing about you over the phone. We laughed a lot remembering you - and that is one of the things that I will remember most: your happy spirit. Ive never known and probably will never again know anyone like you. Even though I havent seen you since As wedding youve never been very far from my heart. You have touched more lives than you know. God Bless You Timmy!! Love and miss you always - Pate

Its been a long time since I saw you last cousin. Youve been in our thoughts and prayers since Aunt Bette told Grandma Doris and my mom (Cheri). Im glad that you are at peace now and no longer in pain even though we all miss you terribly already. Love Miya Jonathan and Rowan
