Our Sympathies to the Timmel family. In 1996 I first met Mel & Lucile in the swimming pool at Hollywood, FL, my first AAL Conference. My wife and I always kept their acquaintance at each conference after that. A great Christian and inspirational couple. Always positive!! Our Blessings to the family to continue their traditions!

So sorry to hear of Mrs.Timmel's passing. So many fond memories with the family. I enjoyed seeing Lucile a few years ago. She was always so kind to me and very hospitable at their home and at the cottage. My sympathies go out to you Donna, Dennis and Doug and to your families.
