Three memories of Timothy Craig Kiser

“

Today Tim would have turned 50. He lost his life nearly 14 years ago and not a day goes by that I don't think about him. He was my Step Father and an amazing man who wouldnt of done a thing different if he knew the outcome. Tim was just that kind of man! He has now been gone longer than we had him and that is hard to wrap my mind around. Tim could put a smile on your face no matter what your mood was, I don't know if it was because he was always smiling himself or if it was his personality and approach to a situation. Tim I miss you and so does anyone who ever met you. There are too many memories I have that I wish I could go back and cherish a little more. My only wish is that I have made you proud of how I turned out. probably never thought I would get married but I am and she is amazing. We have a 5 year old son named Jackson. I wish more than anything that you could have met them. they would have loved you and I know you would love them. I miss you more than words can describe and I know you are up there looking down and watching over us. I love you!
