I recently did a gig with Tim this fall. After the load-in, the crew went out for drinks. Tim bought the 1st round of drinks, because he was like that. We sat down next to each and started chatting about all the things we had in common--Connecticut, our kids, everything-- except work. Somewhere in the conversation Timmy mentioned that he was approaching 40. I was stunned, I always thought he was older then me. Thinking back, I suppose that was because I always admired and respected Tim. The way you admire an older brother for what they are able to accomplish. Tim accomplished so much--he was a great rigger, a great supervisor, a great businessman, a proud father and a great friend. And he did it all with a smile and that incredible contagious laugh.
That was the last time I saw Tim, and I am very grateful for our casual time together.
We just did a show two weeks ago and for three days we kept saying "We need Timmy Keogh on this gig". A statement that will be said for many years to come. He will be sorely missed.
Peace my friend.
