For many years he volunteered his time generously and spent countless hours to help those in need, especially the disabled & quadriplegics. He would assist with grocery shopping and taking them to the bank. He had a love for dogs and sometimes kept as many as 3 German Shepherds & Alsatians while in Jamaica. In Toronto, he enjoyed bicycling and Jamaican cooking. Tim was a competent upholsterer and graduated from the George Brown College, Upholstery Program. He will be greatly missed. Gone too soon. May he rest in peace & let perpetual light shine upon him.

Dear Margaret,
it was very shocking to hear Michael say gentle, intelligent Tim had died. He was courageous, poetic and very big hearted person. The last conversation a couple of months ago, with dear Tim on the phone was one I will never forget. It was a lesson in understanding of what it means to be deeply comitted to his God, his wonderful family and his fellow human beings.
Sincere condolences to you all for the loss of Timmy. We had no idea that he had passed. He and all of you are in our prayers. Sorry we did not make the funeral because of medical appointments.
May he rest in peace with the Lord, and may God bless you with His Peace and Love.
