I read Tim's original post on selling his skis, as I read most posts on Pugski. I was not looking for skis, but when I read the words "home hospice' they took me back almost 3 years to a difficult time for my family. After maybe a day of thought I went back to the list of skis and decided there was a pair I could use, and if purchasing them could help Tim and his family, I was up for it. Tim and then his wife Stephanie said the skis were mine, and I said I'd use them in Tim's memory, and think of him every time I clicked into the bindings.I didn't know Tim but this experience introduced me to the person he was, and all that he accomplished. Tim's passing is a loss for all of us, skiers or not. My best to his family.
