It's Been a Year Already

Hey Guy's & Gals

Just thought I would drop a little note to say Thank You for all that has been done over the last year. The Octoberfest Show was very touching for me and a great way to remember Tim. You all have become some of my BEST FRIENDS I have ever had the pleasure to hang out with. Keep up the great work because we are being watched all the time.

THANKS AGAIN

His Big Brother and Best Friend
GENE

I really wish I would have had the chance to meet and get to know Tim. He sounds like a very special person.

Gene,

It's been a sad year and at the same time a good year. Tim is missed very much but the things he did and helped create are still strong and growing. Everything that Tim was about still shows in our group and makes us what we are, that ever lasting presence is not just in the Chapter but IS the Chapter.

Really great to have been able to meet you and am proud to be a friend. Thanks for sharing your family and being part of ours. Be looking forward to seeing the drag truck sometime so keep us informed on where and when they will be around.

Best of wishes to you and yours during the holiday season may they bring joy to all.

Rollie Trimmell

Tim was a great guy. He was someone who I can easily say I was privilaged to know.

Gene,

Thanks for sticking around. You are so much like Tim that it really doesn't feel like he is gone. I'm sure Tim would be very happy with the way we've all grow together.

Jon

I think there are several of us in here that share this feeling.

Same here, if you talk to anyone who knew Tim they all have a story of how he touched thier life in some way. It's easy to see he was loved by many in the chapter, the proof was in Fordtoberfest where so many gave so much in his memory. Like you said before he is not realy gone from our lives, I have heard so much about how he would help out anybody in need and that is not gone from the chapter. I think it's safe to say there is a little part of Tim inside everyone in the chapter.
