Tim will be missed by his sweet wife, Beth, and his family and friends, but will remain in their hearts forever.❤️
Many great memories with Beth and Tim. Beach trips ,golf outings and most special Tuesday night group dinners, Barb and I will surely miss you. RIP
When I think of Tim, I think of much laughter, giggles, and reminiscing about our glorious and care free days at West Forsyth High School. He had a good soul and left people happy when he departed from them, and he hasn’t stopped yet. It was obvious he loved his sweet Beth and family greatly. He will be greatly missed by all. Rest in peace my dear friend.
Tim was always happy to see me. Beth is a wonderful wife who took care of Tim for 55 years and never complained.
Our family will truly miss Tim. We will forever cherish the memories of meals together, family beach week and golf outings. Tim and Beth loved each other and were so devoted to one other. Tim brought so much laughter to our family and always seemed to appreciate our family bond. We will certainly miss him!
