Tracy, Cody and Kyle, I am so sorry for the loss of your husband and father. My sincerest condolences on your loss and wishing you strength in this difficult time.
Tracy, Cody and Kyle I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Tim. I have many found memories growing up as neighbours from golfing with Tim in your yard (sorry about the window), driveways conversations, and the time the patio set ended up on roof. Tim brought life to the neighbourhood and he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers and with you all during this difficult time. -Eric
Ruth and Norm, I am so saddened to hear of your losses. Losing a brother and a son is unbelievably heartbreaking. May you find comfort in cherished memories. My heart is with you at this time. Ruth, I've never forgotten how you went to bat for me when I was in Grade 11. Thank you.
Ruth and Norm - So sorry to read the obituary of your son Timothy in this mornings newspaper. I can not believe how you are coping right now with the death of your brother as well one day apart. It has been years since we have been in touch - but I can picture your faces from high school and I pray that somehow you both can find peace. Know that many prayers are being said from your former Beck friends as well. Words are at a loss at a time like this.
We were so sorry to hear about Tim's passing. Our condolences to Tracy, Cody and Kyle. We understand your loss and hope that the days ahead get easier as you realize the support and friendship of all those around you. Stay strong and positive as that is what Tim would want for you. We will keep you in our thoughts during this difficult time.
Tracy, Cody and Kyle, I worked with Tim when I first started in construction. He took me under his wing and taught me so much, he gave me a lot of responsibility as a young college student and was always willing to teach and explain anything I had questions about. The knowledge he passed on to me has been tremendous in my career and I was able to start my own surveying company. I felt the gravity of his passing and regret not letting him know how much of an impact he made in my life. Words cannot express your loss and I am truly sorry.
Tracy, Cody and Kyle - so sorry to hear about Tim, thinking of you during this time. My condolences.
Tracy and family, My sincerest condolences to you and your family. May all your special memories warm your hearts and give you strength and courage. You are all in my thoughts, Mona
