I was his “Fashion Dominatrix.” He asked me to go shopping with him when he went into a job search and needed a new suit. We bickered like an old married couple over what he should get but he walked out looking very spiffy. P.S. He got the job.
He was my dearly beloved friend, one of the best I’ve ever had.
If you want to see us together, watch the “Nightline” clip on my media appearances page of this blog. He was one of the clergy featured in the segment.
He was the Rev. Dr. Timothy W. Jensen and he died on Sunday morning after an 18-month battle with lung cancer. He blogged as The Eclectic Cleric and some of you may remember his comments here.
We had all hoped that he would have many more years, but he moved west in June to be closer to family and declined very quickly once he got there.
He had a Boston Terrier he loved very much, named The Adorable Parker. Once Tim came to pick me up when I came for a visit in Seattle and Parker jumped out of the car wearing a little shirt that said, “Does this make me look fat?” He had had the shirt made especially for me, just to crack me up.
You can see why I would feel so bereft.
God bless you, you big ole goof. I miss you so much already.
My most sincere condolences to his friends and family.
Condolences to you, on the loss of your friend.
broken hearts all around – sending you special good wishes as the grief time embraces…
Made me cry… I feel left out never having me him. I love how cute he was with the dog. What an awesome friend to have. I’m fond of saying that grief is the price we pay for loving well. It’s clear that you loved well. What an awesome tribute. Thanks for sharing him with us. I am so sorry for your loss.
So very sorry for your loss. He sounds wonderful.
I’m so sorry. He sounds like he was a wonderful friend.
