Sandra, Sharon and Chuck. My LOVE and thoughts are with you. I remember Tim when he was a 'Little' guy. Flying back with his Dad from California to Kansas, he was so sweet and so was his brother Mitch. May you Rest-in-Peace. God is so lucky to have such a loving and caring young man in his arms now.

When we think of Tim, we remember him as our nephew. From birth; growing up with his brother, Mitch, playing football and baseball. He was always there in the midst of family events; Sunday dinners, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and birthday parties. We will not forget being with him during this part of his life before he left to complete his journey with his wife and family. We will miss him. Our sympathy and prayers go out to Quiese and family as they work their way through this trial.

Tim touched our lives in a special way. He always wore a smile and showed a genuine concern for those he knew. He was confident, and yet humble. I have many fond memories of our time together at MConnell as well as here in OKC. He will truly be missed. May God bring peace and comfort to his family and loved ones during their time of loss.

A great person to get stuck on an Airplane with for 9 hours! Having such a nice person to talk to helped pass the time! I remember arriving in OKC at 12:00 a.m. and Tim said he was going to get TWO cheeseburgers! I have loved working with such a kind, humble and giving person. Thanks for all you have given to us. You will be missed dearly!

As a new TERPS trainee in 2007, After meeting Tim, I instantly felt at ease with him. As my training progressed, Tim was always patient when I came to bug him with questions as many at that time were not. Even after I moved to Tx, whenever I was in OK for a class or something, I always made sure I stopped to visit Tim because I am not sure I would have succeeded in the field without his help. I am truly saddened at hearing of his health situation, and my heartfelt condolences to all of his family. A kind and unique individual has been taken from us much much to soon...

Tim was a great guy to know and be around, intelligent and competent. A "go to" guy for technical advice. Part of the original "JT Bags" group in the old 140 days. We'll miss him.

Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of Tim. He was a son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, veteran, friend, confidante, tutor, leader, and still, much more. He is remembered for his gentle, caring, giving, and loving spirit. His actions and words were always kind and spoken in love and respect. Never did he speak unkindly about another. He is missed, loved, and one day, we will see him again. . . . leave us a message on the far side of Jordan, draw us an arrow down in the sand; point us to where you will be waiting, and we will go see Jesus, hand in hand (Kirk Talley). . . Tim will be forever in our hearts. Thank you Jesus for Your blessing bestowed to have known him.

I am so sorry for your loss. I too feel the hurt of the loss of a loved one. Tim was like a brother to me! I only have fond memories of our times working together and playing softball together. He was a very special person, and I was honored to have known him and to have worked along side of him for the past 14 years. Tim will be missed.
