James Timmons Obituary

Clyde and Jim,

I am saddened hear about the passing of your father. You were blessed to have him with you for so many years. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire extended family.

With deepest sympathy,

No matter how old a person such as Dr. Timmons gets to be, he will be sorely missed by his family. I'm so glad we were able to meet both of your dear parents Helen. Tom and I will be thinking about you and your family's loss.

We moved to Columbia when I was two & Dr. Timmons was "the best doctor on the east coast" mama said. It's a good thing b/c my ears were very bad; I still consulted with him from Charlotte when I had two ear surgeries and he was "an old man"! (never, as we know) With the families being best friends through the years I was able to cherish many precious moments with them. Staying with them in the apt. was a gift of God as it made such a deep impression in my heart & mind. He showed me what a faithful friend is, as he visited Daddy every day for the long time he was in health care & the last day came, patted his arm and asked, how you doing, buddy? So sweet. They were both incredible people with God's hand on their life. "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints"

Offering my deepest sympathy for your great loss. May Almighty God provide peace and strength as you endure this very difficult time.

Sarah, I am so sorry about the passing of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Timmons Family,
What a blessing Dr. and Mrs. Timmons were to us! They were very special people. We're going to miss our annual Christmas caroling! It was always a highlight for us to visit with them, hear stories, and eat ice cream! Dr. Timmons said that was one of the keys to living a long life - a little ice cream every evening. We were always blessed by their generosity and kindness. We feel your loss.
Love,
The Cook Family

We were so very sorry to learn that "Uncle" James had passed away. Be assured of our prayers at this sad time. He was a good and kind man. Remembering lots of fun with all the family at the beach. Sending our love to you all.

Dr Timmons was one of the Great Doctors of our time and his sons are good people.

Hello,
We have never met but I came across the obituary for Dr. Timmons while looking for another, and felt moved to write. I believe that we may be related, so I read with great interest of your father. My great aunt was Edna Hughson McKnight, who was married to Mr. John McKnight. They lived in Sumter, where I grew up. Edna was my grandmother's sister. Perhaps the names of Lois and Louis Tollefson are familiar to you, as they were relatives of the McKnight family. Uncle Johnny McKnight was also a much admired gentleman, as it sounds your father was. No doubt a family of fine people.
I grew up in Sumter, SC but now live in Minneapollis, MN.
Best wishes and sympathy,

Helen and family, we offer our condolences for your loss. Your father was an amazing person and was blessed with a long life filled with love. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sarah and family,
Sorry for the loss of your dad. He was a loving family man and a great professional doctor. Keep those beautiful memories . My prayers and thoughts are with your family

Dr. James (as I respectfully called him) was my doctor from 18 months until I was a teenager. With Dr. David McMurray, we went through a lot of trial and error, experimental medicine. I loved both of these dear men. I am 64 years old, thanks to them, and will always remember them with love.

My prayers and thoughts are with the family .My memories will last a lifetime of the endless times we had together.

Helen, Dick and family,
We are so sorry to hear of your dad. It sounds like he shared a fun and loving life. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dr. and Mrs. Timmons were wonderful, exemplary people. They were exceptionally kind to me when I was at Ft. Jackson in Sept.-Nov. 1963. I extend sympathy to Sarah, Jim, Clyde, Helen, and other family members on Dr. Timmons' death, and I apologize profusely for not having expressed sympathy when Mrs. Timmons died.

Prayer to all of you. So many wonderful memories of your family growing up. May God continue to watch over you and bring joy and peace to you always.
