It Was the Best Thing You Could Do

To the Family and Co-workers of Tim: Thank you for finishing and releasing Tim’s music. It’s the best thing you could have done for Tim’s legacy, for yourselves, and mostly for all his existing fans and fans just now discovering Tim’s brilliance (A new fan like me!). Tim laid the groundwork, and I hope other artists will take up the path he marked. And you, Tim’s Family and Co-workers, in releasing Tim’s works, have done Tim VERY PROUD and made all of us fans very happy and grateful.
I won’t say, “Rest in Peace”. Based on what I’ve read, it just doesn’t strike me as something Tim would be doing in his afterlife. If I had to guess, I would say he is ZINGing through the heavens, healing his soul, and learning everything he can learn as fast as he can. And making certain it’s all perfectly done. Maybe Tim understood more than the rest of us about what comes in the next life. But. . . I hope his family and friends will forgive me if I have misspoken. It is meant only in kindness based on a similar situation in my own life.
Tim most certainly had his own way with music. It’s like he used some kind of sweet alchemy that he invented to interconnect all the right notes and lyrics and beats of all the different genres he incorporated and then he produced PURE MAGIC! I’ve never heard music that makes my heart and soul soar but, at the same time, makes me want to tap my toe or get up and dance. I believe Tim could have combined a Stevie Nicks’ song, with a classical piece from Bach, and then woven in a slow country stepper like “Need You Now” by Lady A. Then through his hard work and his own Magic Method, he would have ended up with a phenomenal song like “Freak” or “Ain’t a Thing” or “Fades Away” or “Heaven” or any of his others. God Bless You, Tim, and thank you for the many, many hours we will continue to enjoy your soul-touching, loving, marvelous music.
I have to mention that I do love Bonn’s voice on several of the songs! HE SHOULD BE MAKING HIS OWN ALBUM (with his SONG WRITING SKILLS and AMAZING VOICE!!!)
