Tim scattered the seed & fertilised it. God grew it, and we reaped, shelled, ate and replanted it. Who remembers "Hey, [name], how much Christianity have you got?" That was a sure-fire hint that [name] was in the eye of a delegation. Who remembers learning something about walking barefoot through wet concrete? Who remembers the Sunday evening service at St Luke's when Tim got us all to kneel and pray. Us in the pews. Tim at his desk-thing up front? Much later, he woke up! Who remembers the mission to Mabelreign? Was that an awakening, or what...for St Luke's, not least of which. That was a fantastic lesson for us all. Rest well, Tim. See you who knows when, but see you again, we shall. Love to Carol, Rachel and Sarah.
Helen Walton
Such a wonderful man with a passion for life, a friendly smile for all and the most infectious laugher. The love Tim had for his family was obvious for all to see, as a proud Husband, Dad and Grandpa. He was blessed to spend his life with them all and our hearts and strength are with them now. Rest well Tim. Love Brett, Helen, Harrison and Sienna. xx
