A. Eric Huekeshoven, Colleague

As part of a recent graduate project, I was to write a paper on Ethics and the Internet. After struggling with the topic for a few days, I decided to call my friend Tim Burchill. As we all know, no matter how busy Tim's life was, he always was able to "fit you in" to the schedule somehow. I spent about 45 minutes talking with Tim and when I was done with the interview, I knew exactly what approach I would take to completing my paper. Tim's true gift, I believe, was his ability to explain complex subjecs in simple terms while at the same time never acting condescending or superior in any way. To lose such a gifted person so suddenly and at the young age of 59 is a true loss for his friends, colleagues, and I would argue the world. God's blessings to Barb and their family.
