My husband worked with your husband and is just devastated by this loss. Our condolences to you and your family. Timmi will forever be missed.
I had met Tim maybe once or twice through his sister Kim whom I went to school with at the time (2015). I’m not sure if we ever even had a conversation past hello, but what I do recall is his smile and what a positive energy and inner light, and sense of self he had even then. He just seemed like a lovely genuine person whom Kim adored! I am so, so incredibly sad to have read of this tragic loss.
Met Tim for the 1st time when him & Shantelle moved next door to us in their new home. Seemed like such a cool & caring person. Someone that would be easy to get along with.
I was really looking forward to getting to know the both of them this summer.
Prayers to Shantelle, Forrest, & the rest of the Schaeffer family.
Tim was one of the best human ive ever met. We all go through stuff in life and drama, but Tim never had a frown on his face. If you were next to Tim, he was smiling from ear to ear, and everyone could tell and the sound of his laughter drew the room. This man was amazing and deserved so much longer then he was given. I wish I was able to spend more time with him before it was too late, but I’m glad Shantelle was by his side because I know she’s made every second amazing for him. They made a beautiful baby that she can forever cherish from him. Tim will never be forgotten and always be missed. I will miss you forever tim you were something really special that touched everyone’s hearts and will forever. We miss you.
