Tim, things I should have told you but I hope you knew anyway. You're bloody lovely. I'm so grateful for all the time you gave us all so patiently, and the way you took the piss out of us so gently, you and Tony truly taught me photography, showing me how to use the different cameras, to dev, to print, to set up the studio, to put it away again, I asked for so much of your time and I don't remember you telling me or my little gang to get lost even once. You were more than a mentor, you listened to us and counciled us through heartbreak and drama, you frequently made us laugh by being a total goof ball, you were like a big brother to all of us. It's been 12 years since I saw you, when I think of walking into CCAD I imagine walking straight up to the hatch and you and Tony being there and chatting as if it was yesterday. When I think of you I don't think of my teacher, I think of a friend and with much affection. I truly feel lucky I had your influence in my life. So many people will be feeling your loss as you were such a bloody lovely guy. Thank you for everything. So much love to your wife and family. Rach xx
