Hey uncle T, It´s Aubree. This is now the 3rd message I think? I´m in 7th grade now. Aren´t ya glad? I´m getting old, i can feel it from my head to my toes. I miss both you and Finn. So i thought i write some of my favorite memories with this meow both you and Finn. One of my favorites is when we were all together at the lake house and we were just about to go on the boat for a a litte tub ride. I was really scared and just got the strength to go on the boat. So i watched Finn go with Micheal and Kaelan. So i asked you if i can try. YOu said yes and told you´ll go slow and make sure im safe. So i went with Chris. I was scared but i knew you wouldn´t blow me off. So thanks to you and my favorite cousin ever i got enough strength to go tubbing. Now i go almost every time we go to the lake house. I love you uncle T thank you so much for all the fun memories I´ll hold on to forever.

Erjavac family,

I have worked with Tim for the past several years and am deeply saddened by his passing. I loved joking around with him when our paths crossed, volleying sarcastic jabs back and forth. We both would have a smirk on our faces, knowing it was just play, always good natured. It always ended with me laughing, unable to come up with a clever line to beat his.

He always made himself available to help. Work orders for office spaces are always easy to get pushed to the bottom of a never ending to-do list, but Tim could always find time to take care of us. He'd stroll into the office with one hand in his pocket, like he had all the time in the world, to fix our AC or seemingly cursed bathroom. And I could always count on some sort of sarcastic happy now? when he finished. It never failed to make me smile.

I'm going to miss running into Tim throughout the hotel and the guaranteed laugh I'd have. He was a good man with a good heart. I wish you all the quickest and easiest way through your grief, I wish you peace as you continue to mourn this great loss.
