Tim loved spending time helping his grandkids with any and every project they

had. He loved being a good neighbor and helping the community. Tim was

passionate about his models, planes, cars, figurines; it didn't matter he would

spend hours in his den working on several projects at a time. He also loved

making wood yard decorations, and the odd shelf or unique project for someone.

He loved the challenge and trying to figure out how to build something just for the

simple fact that it would help someone out. Tim would do anything to help a

friend with a smile on his face. It didn't take a lot to make Tim happy, he was a

humble and grateful person who appreciated the people around him. He spent all

of his free time with family and friends, and all of his professional time in the

service of others.
