Memorial Talk – Liz Abbott Youngs

I am honored to be here today to memorialize my dear friend, my brother, Tim. The amazing outpouring of love is obvious and overwhelming – truly Tim touched hundreds, if not thousands, of lives. For me and for my family, all of the Conovers are our family. We have known them all our entire lives, […]

Legend of the Fearsome Five

The Story of Undying Friendship by Jim Henderson, Bob Jansen, Pat Kelly, Andy O’Shea   It is amazing that the friendships we cultivate in our youth require so little sustenance throughout our lives.  Brief encounters as we separately wind our way through life serve as periodic reminders of our earlier days together and the incredible strength […]

Memorial Talk – Jim Henderson

Regretfully I am unable to be with you all this evening to collectively honor and remember my good friend, Tim, and I sincerely appreciate his family allowing us to share our memories of him.

Memorial Talk – Patrick Slaughter

I’m not really sure how to start.  When Shari called me and asked me to speak at Tim’s memorial service, I have to admit I was more than a little afraid.  I didn’t really know exactly what to say.  I didn’t have all of those charming childhood stories to tell.  And everybody already knows what […]

Memorial Talk – Paul Gertner

Chances are if you’ve scrolled through Timothy’s Facebook page over the last 16 days you might have wondered… Who are all these people posting sympathy messages and accolades, many coming from people that Tim had never even met?  Yes… news travels very fast in our magic community.  But not just the news when someone leaves […]

Memorial Talk – Shari Conover Rosenberg

“Perfect!” Has anyone ever heard Tim use that word? (That’s what Tim would say about today.)  Tim loved perfection.  He loved the beauty of it all coming together exactly – precisely. That was ultimate joy for Tim. And today has been beautiful. Thank you. Thank you to the Bishop Lineberry, Sister Williams, our organist, and […]
