What joy I've gotten from reading people's musings on Tim...or TCD , or "Mr. Tim" as our daughter thought of him. I worked for Tim in what were the "early" days for me professionally. He hired me right out of college to work as an art director. Through Tim and Betsy I met and loved so many, many wonderful people. Tim, Betsy and Matthew came to visit my husband Bob, daughter Nelle and I on our other island home on Vashon Island, WA in 1992. I will never forget the amazing evening that we had sitting on the beach looking over Puget Sound to Mt. Rainier, talking about old times and funny, funny stories. For some reason, my daughter was fixated on the corn on the cob we were roasting on the beach, and all evening kept ranting "I want corn" as only a two year old can repeatedly do until you are ready for the ear plugs. Since that evening, Tim has sent her a Christmas present almost every year that incorporated corn in its design or concept.
The bottom line for me is the gift that Tim left with me since I left Hilton Head in 1988. So many times in the course of daily comings and goings, personally or professionally, when I would have to stop and think about what the appropriate way to respond to something would be, I would ask myself "what would Tim do?" And wouldn't you know, this helped me to react in the best, hopefully kindest or funniest way possible. Thanks, Tim... what a gift of humor, empathy and joy you have left to us all. I will think of you always in the sunset; enjoy the corn.
