Tim met his loving wife Elaine Boehler in the early 70’s.

Tim's career took him to remote corners of the world. In the 80’s Tim spent several years working in and wintering over in Antarctica. In the 90’s Tim ventured to the island of Roi Namur in the Marshall Islands working for General Electric and later, Raytheon.
