Susan, We have never met. I am Tim's cousin Linda. My parents were Uncle Harold and Aunt Emily. I have a sister, Barbara. We lived on Main Street in Penn Yan for the first 10 years of Tim and my life. We walked to school together in grades 1-3. We used to go to his little league baseball games. He, his mom and sisters, spent many Christmases with us even after we left Penn Yan.
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart fell to the floor when I read his obituary. I am so sorry that so much time has passed without any contact. If you are in touch with Judy, Patti, MaryLou and Joanne please pass on my deepest condolences. May Tim Rest in Peace. The memories of us together will remain in my heart. Love to all.
