Today would have been Tim’s 63rd Birthday. 

We celebrated his life yesterday in a service that honored God, our dear friend, Tim, and made room for both laughter and tears.

For those who could not attend or Zoom in, you missed a wonderful tribute from Trish, his sister Julie, his mom, Dee, myself, Chris Holgren, and the pastor of the church we attended in the 1970’s, Jerry Larson.

The memorial service was put on auto-transcription on zoom but alas, the quality of transcription is so poor, it cannot be made public. There is no video recording.

What’s next? Please continue in prayer for Trish, Nate, the Bolen Family and Tim’s kids. And please know that Trish and the entire family are deeply grateful for your faithful love and prayers.

I also want to thank so many people who took the time to thank me for writing the Caring Bridge posts.  It’s been my pleasure and honor to do this for Tim, and to take the load of communicating with so many people off of Trish. 

The entire collection of posts and all comments is available on Amazon. You can order the paperback book by simply searching for the title: Caring Bridge for Timothy Rex Bolen, or search for my name, Ron Frey as the author. The book should come up and you will have the complete collection of posts through April 28, 2022.

As far as I can tell, this will be my last post on this Caring Bridge site. Unless something comes up and we need to reach this entire group, I’m going to sign off, and leave you with one final thought which was printed on the memorial program. 

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three: but the greatest of these is love. 

I Corinthians 13:12-13.
