Tim taught me a few things that I still use today in business, home, etc.
He helped maneuver and advice on trapping and idnr politics along with when to keep your mouth shut.
Funny & true story
We were at Fta national board meeting and Tim J is just going off about how things should be done and that Fta was doing some things incorrectly ..I nodded head spoke up in support along with few others and voted accordingly.
The next year, I go off on things that I felt needed attention/correction and when I get done flapping my gums I look over for support from Tim J as I knew it was something that bothered him also. Tim just sat on his hands and didn't say a word.
Well after the meeting I ask Tim why he didn't speak up on the issue & back me up. His answer was a life lesson to me.
Tim said if I quack like a duck at every meeting no one would listen. Pick your time to speak and they will listen.

I never got a chance to talk to Tim. From everyone I had talked to say he was a straight shooter. My family will keep his family & friends in our prayers.

I will miss him a lot, as some of you know I worked for him for a couple of yrs. Tim knew I hadn't had a real Christmas tree since the 70's. so he paid for the one I got from Bob. He always paid for everything. Dyed and waxed my traps with out telling me. We gave each other nuts all the time. I will never for get him I used to call him dad and tell people that too. The Joke was he looked older yet I was. What a character RIP my Friend
