I Remember Tim

Today is November 16th. In 2005 my dear classmate Tim passed away on this day. He had a heart condition. He was the sweetest guy and never said a mean thing (to me anyway). He was my math buddy. We didn't really hang out in the same crowd or even participate in the same clubs, but we had our thing in math. I remember the day it was announced that Tim had passed away and the entire school was hushed.. well the junior and senior classes were. The school planted a tree in his honor. He was the first ARGS student to ever pass away. When it happened, so many people said why him God? He wouldn't hurt anyone... why him? I asked this question, it happened so fast. Sophmore year he seemed so fine, and then come beginning of our junior year he had lost so much weight I hardly recognized him. But he was still my Tim. My dear, sweet, didn't understand math, but was willing to try Tim. I'm setting aside time today to lift his family up in my prayers, because I don't know where they are at or how they are doing. Will you lift them up with me? Those of you who remember him? Thank You. Tim we loved you. And you did make a difference in the short life that you lived.
