Condolences for the family of “Rowter, Arnold Ellsworth “Tim””

Condolence from Chris Charlton on September 7th, 2011 4:29 pm

I want to offer my deepest sympathy to Althea, Frank and the rest of Tim’s family. Tim was a great friend to mom and dad. For many years, Tim and dad often found themselves out on the lake, deep in the back-country or alongside the road helping travelers or the occasional stricken wildlife. Tim always enjoyed a good laugh. I’ll always remember Tim as a mentor for all of us young patrolmen, wardens, laborers and interpreters. He instilled in us a work ethic and love of the outdoors that endures to this day.

Condolence from Fr. Wayne MIlls on September 7th, 2011 5:36 pm

He’ll be dearly missed. Aunt Althea he and all of you are in my prayers.

Love,Wayne

Althea and family, we were saddened to hear of Tim’s passing. Your loss has been great. What a wonderfully kind person he was to each of us, and our lives were blessed by knowing him.

Althea, you will miss this great man, as will Frank, his wife, and their family . I remember how the words he spoke , especially about Frank, showed the love and respect he had for his son. When Frank married and had family of his own, Tim always spoke of them with kindness and love . Your family was so blessed to have had him in your lives. We offer our condolences.

Althea and family….so saddened to hear of Tim’s passing. Certainly I was closer to Bertie and Allen but do remember many warm visits to your home. Mostly in the kitchen…..where else?
I also remember Danny and Frankie together….a couple of real young boys.
Wish I could think of something to say that might make you feel some better but can’t. Stay strong and I’ll try to call you after a bit.

Love, Brian

Condolence from Christine Ford on September 8th, 2011 4:31 pm

Words cannot express how sad we are of Tim’s passing. He loved to hear all of our stories about the places that we had travelled to over the past years. Tim often shared some of his own tales, especially of his days working at Keji Park. He will be remembered for his kind and gentle ways! He will be sadly missed by all!

God bless you.
