Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Tim was a special man. I have known him since he was about 8 years old. He always laughed and smiled. He was the stepson of my brother Bill.
He road with Bill in 1978 the gravel Alcan Highway to Alaska. They stopped at a Motel to rest. Timmy met a boy, about the same age as he. The 2 boys decided to climb the Mountain, behind the Motel. Hours later Bill woke up and heard the Dad, of the other boy, calling loudly for the boy, Bill came out of his Motel room and found out the boys had gone together to climb the Mountain. Bill was so upset, he didn’t know how to tell Tim’s mother Mary, that he lost her son on the desolate Alcan Highway, fearing the worst that bears or wolves would eat Tim. Several hours later Timmy and the other boy found their way down the mountain. Bill was so upset they had to stay another day in the Motel room, so he could calm down.
Tim again came to Alaska, he wanted a job at
the Salmon Cannery the make money for his Senior year. He worked in the salmon blast freezer for 17 days, made $1700. He was very happy.
He was a proud Father of his children. And loved his wife very much. I remember his sons and daughter, the boys were all dressed up in suits and his daughter had on a pretty dress, they were all young.
I pray that his wife must endure the loss of her husband and son as God must have a special plan for the both of them. May they rest peacefully.
