:cry: Incredibly sad news to hear. Tim fought incredibly hard, cancer is just too much of a b*tch though. Paul is right, we all need to schedule prostate exams and make sure we are good so we can all avoid the pain and hardship that Tim had to endour. RIP buddy.

Thanks for posting the obituary. As a relative newcomer here I can still sense that Tim was a great guy. RIP.

Oh man. I lost my Dad to cancer so I purposely avoided reading this thread due to the emotions it stirs, but 10s made a RIP post in our TGC Community page so I thought I had better check in.

RIP Tim, I enjoyed completing with and against you. You will be missed. :(

I hear you. Father in law went the same way. Never met Tim but being in the same geographical region and our years on the same forum, there's that kinship. Thoughts to the family.

Wow. I just got caught up on this thread, and it is very sad news indeed. I didn’t interact with Divot much (I’m not a golf game guy) but since I read everything here, I always appreciated his posts. His attitude was amazing through his ordeal. I feel so sad for his family. Seems like he was truly larger than life. For us here who mostly only know each other through the thin tendrils of the Internet, it still hurts. Divot was a big member of this group. He is missed. RIP.

Went on to my PS4 for the first time in a while last night to add Pete as a friend and saw Divot on my friends list. Just sucks man. Very very sad. This Thanksgiving should hit home a bit more than normal after Divot’s passing. Be good fellas.

Terrible to see this...we might banter on stuff in games but you guys helped me through my college days without even knowing it and now keep me entertained. This site really has quality people on it in our small community and Divot was one of the best!

:mrgreen: Wow! It really sucks to hear this and especially two years after the fact. DivotMakers coolness about the TW games when everyone was going nuts is what I'll remember most. RIP gamer/developer!

It made me want to take a minute to check in even though it's been 4 or 5 years since I have been active on this board.

I got checked right as I turned 50, I'll leave it up to my doctor to tell me when I have to get the next test. Cancer, mo matter what kind, is tough and early detection is the key. To all my my DSP brothas I miss you and can't wait to game with you once again!
