Sending prayers to the McMillian family during this most difficult time. I've known Tim for over 40 years; every time I seen him he always had a big smile on his face. When he walked into a room, you can believe before he left, he had everyone laughing. He was a loving husband, great father and a all-around good guy. He will definitely be missed by everyone that had the pleasure of knowing him. Patricia & Kenny McTeer
