I also worked with Tim over at Convergys over 10 years ago, but Tim left a memorable impression. He always engaged in our group conversations with a sly, nerdy remark. An all around nice guy who was always willing to help out with his knowledge. You were a good man, Mr. Woelk. Rest in Peace and my condolences to his family. - Posted by: Darby Jones (Work friend) on: May 30, 2014

I was best friends with Timo before I moved away 5 years ago. He was such a funny and witty guy, I remember when he showed up to a Halloween Party dressed as Johnny Depp's character from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. He played the part the whole Night, it was hilarious... We often went to watch a Basketball Game at the U of Dub, or to the movies with friends. You could always count on him for Games Night, and he was 5 minutes early to every Party. He loved tossing the Footy around at his cabin, and throwing a Steak on the barbie.... He was very smart, nobody could beat him at a crossword puzzle. I'm glad I got to spend so much time with him. I will always miss you buddy. - Posted by: Benno Martens (Friend) on: May 28, 2014

Really appreciated Tim playing the worship band. Did not really know of him but what I have heard about he sounds like a very awesome and wonderful person. So sorry for your loss - Posted by: Eleonore Dyck (church member) on: May 27, 2014

I worked with Tim for several years and enjoyed his humour and wit. He was a big fan of hockey, especially the Penguins and enjoyed our Bombers as well. You will always be remembered and never forgotten. Rest in Peace Tim. - Posted by: Jeff Shynkaryk (Friend) on: May 27, 2014
