This is tragic. RIP.

Did he come to Wheeling or CBus Meet? He was Museum active up until a year ago.

I seem to recall him showcasing his new toyroom in a thread, it was terrific.

Very sad news. Tim was a great guy. Lots of fun projects with him over the years.

I was just going through a bunch of emails with Tim and came across one discussing the great Slurpee signs you made and about the possibility of asking you to repro a Mead display sign. He was raving (deservedly) about your work.

I am crushed by this news. Tim and I always joked about having the same toys when were kids. He was always pointing out cool stuff he thought I might want like my Fly Avengers Fly launchers. He helped direct me towards some great Mead school supplies and and some Funstuf Spidey Web Shooters. I remember trading some merch from my NYC TV station with a station in his area to get him a hat from a local newscast. I bought a bunch of his stuff I really didn't need when he needed to raise money when his sister was sick. He was one of my first friends on the Museum.

I remembered how moved I was that he was selling off his impressive collection when his sister became ill. He gave up something he loved that truly made him happy for something he clearly loved more and made him even more happy. He brought so much more to the Museum. He truly was one of the reasons it is such an amazing place.

He was a great collector but more importantly, he was a great guy.

This is heartbreaking, over the years I grew very fond of the man, Tim made the Museum community better by being present here.

I'm truly sorry to hear this. I recall reading his profile years ago and being impressed and inspired. My condolences to his family.

That’s sad. Never knew him myself but hate seeing anyone within our little community passing.
My thoughts are with his family and friends.
