Tim’s family,
Tim was one of the heroes who saved my brother, Steve Murray, in a fire on North Queen St several years ago. He not only pulled him out of the burning buiilding; he brought him back to life with chest compressions. I remember Tim as a good soul and modest man whose courage gave me back someone I nearly lost. I have treasured every moment with my baby brother that Tim gave me since that life changing night.
God bless him and you all. Barbara Murray Rogers

Dear Stan and Shirley, We were saddended to learn of Tim’s sudden passing. As a father I can’t imagine how hard this is to bear knowing that Tim will nolonger be there to talk to or visit with. The camp has lost a faithful member and one chair will be empty this year at the table. Our prayers are with you now and the days and weeks to come.
