Hey Everyone, Tim. I tried to find you for years. Well, I finally did. I remember we played a little music together and wandered around Greenmont at night making up weird names for street corners based on what my little boy said. "Charvonya" was one of our favorites. I really hope to see you again.
Tim wrote this in December '94 when he was 36 (he was an amazing poet):
IF YOU EVER
If you ever lose your way,
Go running down a thousand backroads
Where the warm wind whispers secrets in your ear
If you never find a way
to rise above the waves of sadness
When you fall into a deep blue sea of tears
If there ever was a way to count the moments of your yearning
As they unfold in...

I know you both lived in music, and music lived in you. Sharing my favorite song, in kindness and love.
(Continued)....I would like to comment on something even more wonderful and awe-inspiring about Tim…..I have read many times that during our final remembrances of our lives, we will not remember what seems so important to so many of us "now" about those who surround us......how fast they ran the race, how impressive they seem, or how intelligent they are. Rather, we will remember how they made ...
I could write all day about Tim’s work accomplishments, and all of the accolades and awards he received while at Quintiles. He was a skilled, dedicated, gifted worker who truly valued his teams and projects. However....(to be continued)
Tim transferred to Q San Diego and I was fortunate that he moved into the cube across from me. Immediately, I could see and feel that he was an unpretentious and kind soul. He spoke about his son with love and pride and was thankful to move across the country so he could be closer to his son, whose photos were already placed on his desk. It's remarkable how I knew Tim a matter of days but his a...
Thank you Tim for being a dear friend to me while at the Q. You were the older brother I never had and I will always treasure our friendship and stories about life, cultures, religion, etc. that we shared. I remember how much you loved tea so this morning, on my birthday, I am drinking a cup of hot chamomile tea in your honor! May your soul rest in the eternal light of peace and happiness!
When I first started at Quintiles I sat right across from Tim. I will always remember him as a thoughtful person. He was always willing to help me with any question I might have and as a new employee there were a lot. Always patient, he would help me with any problem whether study related or job related. I always admired his level-headedness which always helped him navigate many situations. I ...

Light is pure; it penetrates darkness; it moves with incredible velocity; it nourishes life; it illumines all that comes under its influence. Tim's light will shine forever & ever. David
