Tim Christman is a difficult man to contain to a paragraph or define in words.
You had to get to know him to appreciate his God-sized heart wrapped inside of an unlikely frame. Tim did not have an easy life and was far from perfect, but he was constantly being refined into a better person. Tim spoke his mind but was also open minded to new perspectives and views. He loved his family, whiskey and blues...but he loved Jesus the most and practiced this by giving away anything he had to anyone who needed it.

A SONG FOR TIM
Written and Performed by our dear friend Joseph Camuglia.
Tim and KT met Joe and his "singing family" while living in Kentucky. Joe was visiting his friend Kathrine (next door to KT), and shared/performed a song for her that moved Tim to tears (which rarely happened). He later explained that what he saw in Joe, the pure love for Jesus and love for his family (children and wife Amy) was one of the most beautiful things he had ever witnessed.
Their friendship remained strong, even when life moved Tim and KT to New Jersey and Florida....Joe (a true troubadour) would always stop by on his travels and spend the night (sharing food and fellowship). We always talked about the kids as they were similar ages to Joe's kids and had played together, and it is simply beautiful that Joe wrote this song for BoDee (Tim's youngest son) and really for all of his kids....because Joe knew how much Tim loved his family.
And....another fitting song by Joe.
