Goodness, how time flies. I cannot believe it's been 5 years since Tim left us... I will never forget my ES friend..
One of the few I chatted with often via members chat and over the phone... I loved Tim's sense of humor.
I'll be eternally grateful for his loving support during some of the rough times I had while in school. He truly was one of God's precious gems.
Tim, there is definitely a void in the lives you touched since your passing... ES has never been the same. My one regret, is I never got to Texas or NFR to actually meet you.... Guess that will have to happen when I meet you down the road in heaven my friend!

Tim certainly left his mark of love and friendship on many people, including me.
I got to meet Tim outside of the chatroom at the get together for Kempster. As so many of us, I was going through a really tough time then, and Tim spent a lot of time that week just talking to me. I came home with a new perspective and just a little bit happier. I still have my t-shirt from then and think of Tim and smile every time I put it on. He had also given me a small picture that reminded me of my son. It still hangs in my hall.
I know God enjoying our favorite cowboy. Can't wait to meet both of them when the time comes.
Love ya, Timmers!!

Tis the season when I think about Tim more than usual. To me he represented what ES was about, not just a singles website, but a real community of friends who truly cared about one another.
But mostly I remember how much ES meant to him, especially in the final months. Tim is a constant reminder to me to not sweat the small stuff. We miss you big guy. Hard to believe it's been 6 years...

I think that we all would agree that knowing Tim was to be blessed. I didn't meet Tim through ES, but as a fellow Cutter and Horseman. Tim is a special sole that touched so many of us with his love, frendship and laughter. I believe Tim lived life to the fullest and is a great example for all of us that life can throw you a curve ball and how you catch it is up to you! I know that Tim is watching over us smiling that his EQ friends are still remembering him :)
Wishing everyone a safe, healthy and blessed holiday!

Terribly late but...
Tim and I spent about 12 years together in the United States Air Force at both at Davis-Monthan AFB, Tucson, AZ, and Beale AFB, Yuba City, CA.
Tim taught me how to ride a motorcycle in Tucson. I believe Little Timmy was a toddler at the time and Kristen was just an infant.
Tim also taught me how to snow ski in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Northern California. Tim, Nancy and I skied regularly for about 6 seasons. I would visit the house on Beale AFB early in the morning for a day of skiing and often wake Little Timmy and Kristen.
I sold my green Datsun 260Z to Tim.
Tim's favorite music during those years? Z Z Top, the Allman Brothers and the Atlanta Rhythm Section. These cassettes were always blasting from the Chevrolet Malibu.
Learning about Tim's passing while doing an internet search for USAF buddies is a shock. Instead of lamenting about Tim's passing I will honor the wonderful times that we spent together. For all the O’Keefe family (including Aunt Barbara) you can walk tall knowing that Tim is a great man.
I will never forget my friend and companion Tim O'Keefe.

Thank you for posting that David.
I have not been in here for a while & was thinking about Tim when I saw this post. Tim was a good guy & is still thought of & missed.
