Just a note to tell you how sorry my family is to hear of your loss. I have heard wonderful things about Timothy and hope that the memories will give you comfort in time. Ivy and I will continue to keep you all in our prayers and wish you the comfort of knowing that he is with God and could be in no better place. The sudden loss of my mother this past December is still very fresh and more real to me now that the numbness and shock have wore off. Words cannot express the sorrow we feel for you all. Much love and prayers.
P.J., Cathy, Ivy, Braeden and Will Whaley

Kevann and Rebecca,
I cannot express in words how I feel about the loss of your husband/father Tim. He always had a smile and a hug for me, as he cared about my problems and listened intently. A wonderful, talented, personable man ... I sure will miss him.
I will keep you and yours in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you all.

Tim was a great musician and a good friend and his music and fellowship will be greatly missed by all of us who came to hear the guitar masses he provided on Saturday night. Our prayers and condolences go out to the family.

It is with much sadness that we leave this message. My cousin Tim, whom I am sorry to say, I haven't seen for many many years, brings back numberous youthful memories. My mother was Honora (MANTLE) Riffle, Tim's aunt. Our prayers are with his family. God Bless each of you.
