The lighting of a Memorial Candle not only provides a gesture of sympathy and support to the immediate family during their time of need but also provides the gift of extending the Book of Memories for future generations.

The penultimate salesman

As a veterinarian, I had met Tim many times but not being in his district other than a hello, I did not speak with him very much, BUT Tim had his finger on the pulse of most of what was going on in veterinary medicine and then one day on one of our casual "hellos" at a veterinary convention, he approached me about one of my inventions, and introduced me to what his company (Jorgensen) could do for me, and that was the start of  a 5 year lucky friendship that allowed me to really know this ebulient, kind, loving, giant of a man. His passing was a shock to all that knew and LOVED him, and he was easy to love. FAREWELL, MY GOOD BUDDY.
