Well, this has taken me awhile, still hard to believe Tim has crossed through the pearly gates. I was permitted a glimpse perhaps,or just a picture, of his face as he caught site of heaven for the first time. 

His smile just got brighter as did his eyes as he saw all that he'd hoped to see and more. It's a sight I pray never to forget. 

I loved Tim dearly as our friendship grew over the last 10 years. He became a true brother. 

I miss our conversations round the table at The Exchange, and at Dr. John's, and even a few through texts. I appreciated the unexpected but well timed hugs, even when they provoked unwelcome tears. He was such a a help regarding my car, being much more up on Subarus than I. He was one who helped in the transitions after I found myself on a new and scary journey. He even came to help unload the truck when I moved to Red Lion. 

He grew so much in these years. He was a beautiful man of God who loved Him greatly and loved others as well. (And oh could he sing!!!!) We got to talk about some of the dreams and visions he had, and I respected his gift and insights especially when making the move to GA. He was one of the very few who understood and could grasp God in it. 

I loved his sense of humor, and loved it when he'd 'hey Sis' with a grin and a twinkle in his eyes. I will miss this most of all, as I already have since moving so far away.

Heaven has gained a real treasure for sure. He will forever hold a special place in my heart. 

Love to you Sandy and Kendall.  May God hold you close always. Love you both.
