Tim, along with Joe Bee, were Eastern Illinois University wrestlers and college roommates of Matt Hughes. Both Tim and Joe died in a tragic drowning accident at EIU in May 1996. Tim’s parents created a scholarship fund in their son’s memory to benefit college students. Each year, Tim’s parents give out from fifteen to twenty $500 scholarships. The students are selected not necessarily by their academic performance but by whom Tim’s parents feel their son would have chosen to receive the scholarship. To date over $100,000 has been raised and distributed. This is the 7th year the cards have been sold. Tim’s aunt, Sue Shanahan, an artist and illustrator, creates each year’s card in memory of Tim and Joe. The cards are $20 for a package of 10. They can be purchased by going to www.SueShanahan.com.
