I am sorry to Tim's family and friends. This is very sad news.

Here's a link to some fun Tim stuff...

Thanks for the link, Ron! It's, uh, almost unreadable, but nice to have the resource.

I know I saw Tim when the boys played the Troubadour in the early 90's, but that show isn't in the timeline for some reason. I rode with Tom Gullota and Court Patton to the show. Tom was eating a burger and driving 80 in the carpool lane. I was scared witless - it was about a two hour drive.

At the show some dude from another band jumped up on the stage while DA (was it an Eddies show? I'm fuzzy on that) was playing and told the crowd to make sure to stay around to hear some real music or something like that. Tim was clenching his fists and looked like he wanted to pound the guy. Terry gave him a look or told him to let it go, I don't remember for sure, it was too long ago.

I remember standing with Tom G. after the show as he gave each of them $20 - imagine that. Then someone spotted Tom Howard walking away from the show and shouted to him. He turned around and waved, but kept going.

I've been to other DA shows in the 80's, so I must have seen him then as well. But then memory is always the first to go...

If you know the date of the show we can add it to the timeline. We rely heavily on people to give us information, Jerry gave us a lot of old dates and CCM had a bunch in the 80s but not all of them.

Yes- one day I just plowed through the Timeline at the main site and was just amazed how much they toured, back in the day.

I'm not on Facebook anymore. Is there more information out there about either a fundraiser or what happened , etc?

Yea, I wish I could remember. I'm terrible with dates.

All I've seen and heard was that Dan Michaels said Tim's health had been failing for a while now and that he died in his sleep. He wasn't found for a few days because he wasn't living near his family, he was in Illinois.

Apparently Tim suffered an aneurysm a few years back that caused his health to decline (but no details as to how). That's all I heard. No doubt we will find out more in due course.

As somebody who was a fan of Tim, and who only knows Tim through the music and through the internet. As a Facebook friend and before that on the Daniel Amos message board, Tim's loss is something I can't wrap my head around still.
Tim's presence on the DA message board, when he would often stop by on Fridays to answer questions and be a avaible was something I enjoyed and would look forward to in the pre-Facebook days. His posts as Berger Roy Al were hilarious as he argued with himself and posted about over-indulging gallons of Windex made for times when I truly did laugh out loud before I posted LOL. I was truly grateful when he continued as both on Facebook. I start laughing just reading "that dirtbag Chadler".
Thinking about Tim's I vacillate between mostly between denial and anger. Not anger at God (although if I were it wouldn't be the first time). I just don't want to think about the world without him in it and it Mountain Dewes me off.
I know I'm not alone in my feelings.
I'm not really sure I have a point. Just stuff that's running through my head I need to get out.
I think about all the people Tim affected via music, the internet and in his personal life and it fills me with sadness.
This glows with warmth. I feel like I've lost a relative, a cousin maybe or crazy uncle.
I'm at a loss.

Thanks everyone for coming here and commenting. Its a weird place to be isn't it? Someone you don't know, didn't even really write the lyrics we love, yet still impacts us so strongly. I don't know how to process it really, so I am doing it through what everyone else is saying!

I remember feeling fairly devastated when Mark heard died. And when Rich Mullins died that hit us pretty hard mainly because we had just seen him at Cornerstone playing football with some kids. Both of them were part of that 'cornerstone-ish' community of people. We met Rich very briefly a couple of times, didn't really come close to 'knowing him.' We had hung out with Tom Howard briefly a time or two and when he died it still felt like a punch to the gut.

When it came to Larry Norman and Gene Eugene they were different for us, mainly because we knew it was coming with Larry and never got to know Gene really at all.

But I think a lot of it has to do with all of us being part of a weird little community or 'family,' these artists have/had special unique relationships with their fans. That and the fact that their music is personal and real as opposed to CCM fluff. We all empathize and relate to what they say through their songs and often most of us are square pegs or outsiders as well. The type of people cornerstone was made for.

It's like losing a brother, uncle or cousin.

I think you touched on it, Audiori. They get inside our minds, our hearts with their music. We are absurdly vulnerable to music and how it makes us feel. We say, when we listen, "Please, sure, come on in".

We are a strange little subset within the subset of Christian music. We are a tiny, odd little family.

I think I like every track on "Dig Here..." but the one I find myself skipping forward to hear all the time is "Now That I've Died" and I fixate and follow the bass line. I can hear it right now.
