| Hello Members,
I was contacted today by Tim Cotter’s (Cosmic Jumper) wife. She sadly informed me of his passing this past Saturday. From what she told me, he was having lunch with Hammy from this forum I believe. They were eating when he collapsed. 911 was called he was brought to the hospital. He apparently had a massive stroke. He entered hospice last Friday and passed on Saturday.
She saw my phone number and called to let me know. She is devastated. I spoke to Tim a few weeks ago all was good with him. She wanted me to let the forum members know of his passing. She is not tech savvy she told me. So here I am passing on the sad news. Please keep Tim and his family in your prayers. Ride safe.
CathyN

| Big loss for this community. Tim's probing questions and helpful counsel were invaluable to hundreds of Wing owners over the years.
When I bought my sixth Wing last month, it came with several high-performance extras I didn't need, so I put them up for sale on this forum. He wanted a Malossi Clutch Torque Spring for $20. I insisted on sending it to him for free, including postage, as a small thanks for all the help he gave to others. He was touched. Glad I did it.
Tim was a big fan of Japanese haiku, and would occasionally ask me to write one on some subject. I was always happy to comply. This one's for you, Tim.
Cosmic spirit soars Floating on eternal Wings His presence blessed us

| Yes, this is extremely sad news and as much as it is such for his wife and family it is devastating for this forum community. Tim was a main player here and always helpful and quick to offer his knowledge ...which was vast. Tim will be hugely missed here. Prayers for Tim and for his wife as well as sympathies on this tragic news to her and family.
Thanks for sharing the news Cathy. News, certainly not expected.
Rest in peace, Tim !

| Thank you for letting this group know CathyN. Very sad news indeed.
I will miss Tim not only for his knowledge, sharing nature and diplomacy, but mainly for the good person he was and the positive impact his friendship had on me. Below is his official obituary.

Raise your glass in honour of TIM "The Perfect Innkeeper" Completely agree…very tough to hear this (and he was 80 years young, which is actually comparatively young these days!). |

| Cathy,
Thank you for passing on this news. Please tell Tim's wife I am so sorry for her loss. Tim was a great guy and I wish I could've met him. I made him the co owner of this site because he was such a nice person. We chatted alot via email.
He will be dearly missed by all that knew him.
God bless,
JeffR |

| Please add my condolences and prayers to those of everyone else. Tim has been a good friend to me behind the scenes; his kindness, mild manner and approach to everything has taught me a great deal. I am a believer in lighting candles for people (it focusses my mind), in particular those who are ill or under stress; for some time now Tim's been on my list - many members on here will know into which category he fell - and he will remain on my list albeit in a different category. Rest In Peace you lovely man. |

All my condolences to his family and wife. Godspeed. |

| Tim was friendly, knowledgeable, always willing to help, and able to crack down when needed. He left big shoes for others to fill.
I once joked that I wanted to exchange my points for some Green Stamps and Tim changed my avatar to Green Stamps. He admitted that he did not know what the points were all about. I appreciated his sense of humor and attempt in a small way to honor him. |
