She loved: her family, books, growing things, lively discussions about the Bible, watching birds, encouraging second helpings at meals, winning at word games, laughter, every tree she saw, and knowing God who was the foundation of her life.

What an impressive legacy! Dr. Matt Timm was my supervisor at Tn Voices for Children in Nashville. I have never know a more compassionate and kind person. I now understand much of his character and personality after reading about his precious mother. Her love of people, family and God will live on through her family, especially Matt Timm. May God comfort each of you as her family. Paul

What a lovely tribute to Mrs. Timm. I especially like the sentence with all the things she loved. I am the widow of Robert C. (Bob) White and my sister-in-law Jeanette White sent me this link. My late husband Bob always spoke with love about the Timm family. Certainly Alexine had a life well-lived. I send my warmest wishes to all her family.

Sending our sympathies your way. We are proud to have know such a fine woman! You are blessed to have had her with you for so long. When she & Don moved to Benton, it was a great loss to Hot Springs, but I know they were happy there to be closer to family.
