"The devil led the vilest form of evil down our driveway, and it smiled at me."
Sharlene Bosma: “He has become our Tim”
She was the picture of courage.
Sharlene Bosma, widow of murder victim Tim, spoke fondly of her memories of him during a memorial service Wednesday at Carmen's banquet hall in Hamilton. During her eulogy, she remained composed, until talking about the events of May 6, 2013, the day he disappeared.
"The devil led the vilest form of evil down our driveway, and it smiled at me."
She spoke of the outpouring of support since his disappearance, and word of his murder, and said he was no longer just her Tim. "He has become our Tim."
Hundreds of family, friends and supporters attended the approximately 80 minute public memorial.
