Dear Dawn, TJ and Kelly. My heartfelt sympathies go out to you. I am thinking of you and know that God will give you strength through this difficult time. Take comfort in the knowledge that Tim loved you deeply and you were his highest priority in his life. He is a great husband, father and man of integrity and goodness.
For Susan and Karen, my condolences and thoughts go your way. Remember your brother with joy and peace.
I have known Tim for more than 40 years and it was a blessing to have him as a friend and confidant. I truly admired and respected Tim.
We shared many, many great times. Back in the 80s attending evening classes at BW we closed the Eastland Inn more than just a few times – we even got kicked out of the parking lot playing morra! Sei!
Tim resurrected my love for coin collecting that I started as a youth. He was exceptionally knowledgeable, and we went to several coin shows – I wouldn't buy a thing without his approval – and he knew how to pick them.
His expertise didn't end in numismatics; he was also savvy with antiques and collectables. Once again, his extensive knowledge of the subject was amazing and educational.
Then there were the poker games. Ahh yes. I can't put in writing here what went on at those games but can say they were a blast!!!
You, Tim, and those fond memories will forever live on in our hearts.
I'm really going to miss you good buddy. Life just won't be the same without you.
Mike Pallendino
