No pain, sorrow, gettin old, bills or taxes!! Surely his family and others are brokenhearted and in need of our prayers and support of those close by. But they can take comfort in God's promises and He will give them strength if they will come to Him. He knows what it is like to lose a loved one, remember He watched as His Son was beaten and killed to redeem us unto Him! Let us all take heed and realize our reckoning day is coming and the only way to be ready is to have an ongoing relationship w/God thru His Son Jesus Christ. Then, when we leave here, we can re-unite with "brother" Tim and multitudes of others and whatever suffering we go thru here will be nothing compared to our reward !!!

Could not have said it better. Having never met Tim but reading what others have said of him, he was a great guy and a great racer. When people of different social/economic backgrounds share the same opinion of someone, it speaks volumes about their character.
My prayer today will be for comfort and peace for your family and all that called you "friend".
