    Tim was a great friend and neighbor my whole life. It was always fun talking with him. Lots of memories at his house growing up. I have missed him since he moved and the neighborhood lost a good one.

    A classmate. Tim and I worked together at Kings Speed Shop the summer of 1972. It was great getting to know him that summer and though our paths didn't cross after that, I always considered Tim a friend. Saddened to hear of his passing. Condolences to his family.
