Dear Wanda and all of Tim's family,
I am so sorry of Tim's passing. Because of his love for all of you, and your deep love for him, he will remain in your hearts forever.
My family and I send our love and prayers for peace, comfort and joy now and in the days to come, knowing he is with Jesus.
My heart goes out to you and the kids Wanda. As you know although we were cousins we raised up together as brothers. I think back of all the good times we had, from hanging out at the race track to all the times he rode with me when I was at the Police Dept. Too many memories to put all on here. I will miss him forever. Love you.

Thoughts and prayers for your family and friends Tim. You will be truly missed. I enjoyed our chats in your office and sharing Frito's. I was and will always be a 'Tim Fan'. We became friends, not just co-workers, I am blessed for that. Many hugs.

I have had the privilege of knowing Tim and Wanda for a few years now. Tim never met a stranger and had the most special smile. I am going to miss that smile and am very proud to have known Tim and call him a friend. May God protect Wanda, the kids and grandchildren and they process this time of loss and sorrow.
