Today Rich Timm lost his battle with emphasema. He was a great man who I call a real friend. Everyone in Michigan surely knows what he meant to me and my dad. I handled his dogs a lot and he had some top notch ones. He was true houndsman that loved hounds and little pack with all his heart. Going to trials again in January just won't be the same without my dear friend. From what I understand he passed quietely with his family. Anyone who truely knew him knew he cared about everyone. I will surely miss you buddy maybe someday we'll run hounds again.

sorry to here that.

I am so sorry to hear this. I only new Rich for a short time,but really thought a lot of him.

Sorry to hear bout Mr Timm....his family will be in my prayers

I will surely miss Rich. Little pack meant the world to Rich. I only reason I believe he would miss a trial was to watch is Grand Daughters play sports. Mike and Leon you guys really made it possible over the last few years for Rich by handling his dogs. His family will be in my prayers.

Sad to hear this...talked to him a few times at trials seemed like a great guy.

What a Sad day for the beagling world....I will miss Rich alot...Sure had alot of fun over the years trialing with him and even more fun telling stories While the hounds ran... Sure will miss you ole buddy...RIP Rich..Prayers for all his family and friends..

WHISPERING A PRAYER FOR HIS FAMILY SAD TIME TO LOSE SOMEONE HOLIDAYS

Wow, what a loss. He was definitely a guy you enjoyed having in your cast. Always brought his humor and some tough dogs. He will be missed by my whole family. Michigan trials won't be the same.

I didn't know Rich as well as some but the short time I knew him he seemed like a great guy who enjoyed the sport and his dogs. I had the chance to handle Check at the state hunt and was honored to do so. I am sorry I didn't know him better but I will miss seeing him at the hunts RIP Rich and I will have your family in my prayers.

Yes it truly is a sad day!
Rich was always the life of the cast and always loved sharing his candy and good hearted nature with everyone!
My wife and I always enjoyed being in a cast with him and will miss him!
Prayers from my family to his.
