A UNIQUE FUNERAL FOR A UNIQUE PERSON
The funeral for Tim Took place at 1pm on September 23rd 2005 and it was a truly beautiful and unique event. Tim and Jane have an oak tree in the centre of their paddock and Tims coffin was laid on a pedastal underneath it. Nearby his motorcycles were placed next to each other. When Tim was brought in, all motorcycles were started and they roared in respect and salute to Tim. It was a very moving and wonderful moment for all but especially to Jane and Tim's family.
There were so many family, close friends and aquaintances that attended for the final farewell. There were at least 250 persons paying their respects and giving Jane and the family their support. The service was a beautiful tribute to Tim and all did him proud. The service was kept light hearted as Tim would have wanted but also with deep respect for Tim and the occasion. When Tim was led away, once again his bikes roared and I believe there wasn't a dry eye to be found.
SOME VINTAGE BIKES FROM TIM'S RACING CAREER WERE ON DISPLAY
A display of his photographs and trophys was set up for all to see and walking into the tent really took your breath away. Cups and trophys were numerous and the display of photos depicted his life through childhood to adulthood. All the tribues to date were placed in a folder with many others that the family has personally recieved.
As a mark of respect, his company vehicles were present also.
Tim was a unique person with unique qualities such as love, kindness, humility to name just a few. He was very highly thought of by everyone and had a special place in their hearts and always will do. There will never be enough words to express the kind of person he was. He is sorley missed by everyone, not only in the business world but also amongst his dear family and friends.
Most in attendance were able to stay back and celebrate his life the way he lived it.
