I met Tim back in the day at Islington Public school. As the years past we reconnect as our kids went to OLP school. I wasn’t working at the time and Tim asked if I would work with him and his Father-in-law. Tim always talked about his kids, his wife Jane and family. Always caring for others and laughing.
You will be missed old buddy ! May you rest in peace
MY deepest deepest condolences go out to the BOYS and Family 🙏❤️🙏

Dear Zembal Family,
I was deeply saddened to hear of Tim’s passing. I will always remember him as the Silverthorn School President, whose vibrant energy and infectious smile lit up every room. He had a unique ability to welcome everyone, treating us all as equals, and his amazing spirit inspired so many of us. He had an amazing raport with the staff as well. I truly believe that his spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of those he touched.
Please know that my thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
With heartfelt condolences,
Susan Kotyk

My condolences to Tim’s family and loved ones.
I met Tim on my first day at Carleton when he mistakenly began unloading his stuff into my room and started telling me what a great year we were going to have as room mates. We weren’t room mates (he was across the hall), but we had some great times at Carleton. Though we haven’t been in touch over. the years, I remember Tim’s generosity, humour and kindness very fondly and was very saddened to learn of his passing.

I’m proud to share I’ve known Tim my entire life as my older brother Vince’s best friend from kindergarten. I’ll miss his raspy voice, smile, his love to talk, passion to cook and overall kind demeanour. Our families became close and I have many childhood memories. We reconnected when Frankie attended my daycare. Tim adored his 3 sons. May he rest in peace with Jayne 🕊️
