Tim loved traveling to places such as the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, the Northwest, Victoria, Indy and Myrtle Beach. He had a passion for discovering and learning about everything and was just as passionate about sharing that information. Some of Tim’s favorite activities included riding his Harleys, spending time at the range, cooking, biking, canoeing, dining with friends, listening to live music, building and fixing things. (If he couldn’t fix it, it wasn’t broken.)
Tim was a devoted and loving husband. He was an extremely intelligent, funny person who will be deeply missed by his wife, family, friends and coworkers.
