Tim's life was interesting, extraordinary, and exciting as he was always up for an adventure. Always the innovative and curious character, Tim spent decades playing the music scene in Colorado, writing and recording music with fellow musicians, playing ice hockey in the Fort Collins Hockey League, hiking in his beloved Poudre Canyon and rock hounding for gem stones which led him to build his own gem cutting machine and teaching himself to become master gem cutter. His love of family, music, and life made our own lives whole.
Peace, Love, and Light 🙏🏼
