My heart is broken. I felt a real connection to this case and my mind just didn't want to process the idea that a stand-up husband and father could be killed for an OBJECT. A thing. Something he would've gladly given up to go back to his family. This was a good man - a man who had a life, people who loved him and people he loved. Goals and aspirations. Because of cowardice and greed, a girl will not have her father to walk her down the aisle someday or see her graduate. Tim will not get to be a grandfather. A stolen truck can't compare to the life that was stolen from a good man and the hole that remains for his loved ones.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Bosma family and all of Tim's friends. Tim belonged to a wonderful community in life through his family, friends and church; and he was able to unite an even larger community in death. RIP.
how does one ever heal from something this tragic
