Well my neighbor across the street was dignosed with stage 4 cancer which started in his lungs and spread throughout his body and to his brain about 2 years ago. The doctor gave him 1 year. He was the guy who was alwase outside, you could go talk to him about anything, any timeand he loved rock & roll.He is single handedly responable for me being fortunate enough to drive a BMW for my first car and convincing me to get a BMW. Tim saw me washing my parents cars every weekend(chores) and offered to pay me to detail his car.. I spend 6 whole hours making his 7 series BMW(tim only drove bimmers becase he walked away from a high speed wreck in one) he paid me $125 as a 15 yearold who wanted a car more than anything in the world, this was one hell of a start. well the neighbors saw me detailing his car and wanted theirs done! before I knew it i had done nearly 55 cars and earned enough money to buy my dream car but i never have forgotten where i got my start any time he wanted either of his cars washed or detailed he took priority over anyone... well around thanksgiving Tim started to go down hill, he was in the hospital untill Thursday when he cam home and was on hospus care in his home. i got a phone call today around 2:30 from my mom saying that tim might not make it through the hour and to come say goodbye.. i dont think i have ever driven so fast and weaved through so many cars to get home..i was fortunate enough to see him alive one last time, he wasnt awake and his breathing was very troubled. but I got to thank him for helping me start my business and having such a stong influance on me...

Tim passed about 4:55 this evening. He will be missed around the neighborhood and everywhere else he set foot.

I am sorry to hear about the loss. Tim sounded like a great guy. Treasure the memories and remember him for what he was... a great man. It sounds like he made a big difference in your life. PIF

I'm very sorry to hear about Tim Aaron. He sounded more like a family member than a neighbor.


I hope you can take a drive to celebrate both of your lives.

Sorry to hear about Tim. I had a neighbor just like that, the best thing is teach others what he taught you, its what I did. Take a drive and come back and remember the good times...

I can't say sorry, Tim will rock on in people's hearts and he'll live on through people like you brother. Enjoy the moments you know this good man and the legacy he leaves; smoke your finest for this man, I will in the morning.
