I know this family personally, they are some of the best people I have had the pleasure of meeting in my life time. Timothy's Uncle Chris and I served in the USCG together, we've known each other for about 28 yrs and he and his wife Terri are like "brother and sister" to me. Unfortunatly, I have to be in Seattle, WA on Monday and am not able to show my respects to this fallen hero and his family in person.
I ask that all members in this state that are able to, show up and honor this man that has gave his all, for us and his country, and show his family that there truly are people in this great country of ours that care about and honor what our service men are sacrificing for our freedoms everyday.
Thank you and GOD BLESS,
