Tim and I used to catch up and go to the Oakwood(?) beach by the Yacht Club. I remember well his Mom, Dad and sister. His Dad worked at the Lima Refinery for Sohio at one point and my Dad flew for Sohio so we/they swapped stories about that.
Once, Tim had injured an ankle, was in a cast and I raced on my bike to the beach with Tim riding with his Mom driving. I hit some gravel, fell on my butt and wound up in Lakewood Hospital getting stitches. Tim turned out to be a real pain in the a@!
Later, he married Jollie Watson from Lakewood who had introduced my wife to me. Leslie and I know of their two children from Christmas cards and pictures and have followed the family as it has blossomed. We had hoped to catch up with Tim at the 55th but he was not too optimistic about making it.
Tim was a good person, gentle through and through. I am sorry we did not get to have a last hello/good-bye.

Jon and I lived on the same street. We walk to school together. He was so nice and easy to talk to. My deep sympathy to Peggy and the rest of his family.

Tim was such a 'nice' guy in the truest sense of the word...in hindsight like Martha Kemper already mentioned... a real gentleman,,,, and I still have cute photos from Senior Week parties I went to with him. Rest in peace, Tim.
