    Yep, it's a tough one. He's the best friend I have that I've never met face to face. Plans we had of things to do as he improved was always one of the things we talked about every call.

    Love that quote. It will probably go on my wall next to Swindoll's "Attitude".

    Sure would be nice to see some more photos and hear some more memories. I find myself talking about him to others every day.

    Who knows the story on the snapping turtle in Kentucky? I can't find it from Tim anywhere, even though he mentioned it often......

    I knew Tim and Jody through my wife, all three worked for the same company. We meet them in person @ the Miami Boat Show about the time he got his Pantera. I donated a bunch of left over parts from several of my projects. I really liked his posts. RIP

    Kinda doesn't seem real. Three years.

    That guy from Trailer Park Boys almost hit Tim's death date. Thought of Tim.

    Have you talked to Jody lately?

    It’s been two years since we had the service for our boating buddy Ryan. Did it in Horton Bay with 19 boats rafted up. Sure glad we were able to make it happen. You could still do something, maybe find something to dedicate to his memory and have a service.
