  4. We have so appreciated having Tim and Pat as neighbors for the past 13 years. We always loved when our paths crossed during dog walking, yard work, garden produce and sometimes cookies. Our conversations were always filled with fun and laughter! We will miss Tim so much. Our prayers are with Pat and the family. We know God’s great love will help you through this tough time.

  7. Sad to hear of Tim’s passing. He was a classmate and a friend in high school. I used to help him work on his red Comet GT, and went to the Cedar Falls dragstrip with him. I also remember Tim from trap shooting at the Otter Creek gun club. My sympathies to Tim’s family.
