Happy 30th birthday! We enjoyed going to church, a visit to the hospital to see Grandmom, a delicious meal cooked by Tina and enjoyed by all of us, and an excellent 76ers game with a halftime appearance by Dr. J. in your honor. I managed to put lights and garland on the small tree; we'll have to add some ornaments on Christmas Eve. Your ecount family sent a beautiful bouquet again this year. We will have to visit them this summer when Grandma Nella comes. My friends from work and church made a wonderful quilt with patches of clothes from you and your sisters. It has nice sayings on it and is masculine and warm. You are so fortunate to have inspired such devotion. I thought of you often this week since Alyssa Godfrey died in a car accident 2 weeks ago. I arranged to use the convent basement for coffee and cake for anyone who wanted to sit and talk. A few people came down, but her parents were able to relax a bit at the end and then go home without a crowd. I think I'm still in shock and denial.
Love, Mom

Tim, I am so proud to finally call you my brother tomorrow. You meant so much to Matt and I can't imagine two brothers who were closer. Tomorrow at the wedding, you will be on all of our minds and we will not disappoint you. Every dance and toast will be dedicated to you. Matt and I can't wait to have kids so we can tell them stories about their Uncle Tim. I love you and I will miss you. Love, Your sister, Jill Collins Chestnut

I believe the true measure of a person is not how they improved their life, but how many lives they?ve improved. Tim you made everyone that came in contact with you a better person and you did it with an amazing sense of humor and a great realistic perspective on life.
Whether it was making us laugh at work or at company gatherings or the many times we went out in Conshy or the city you were truly one of a kind, I will never forget helping you ?catch up? after the Erin Express and especially the T.C. comedy minute at the Buffet! priceless! I now thank God that the train was out on that Thursday night because it allowed me to share one last great story with you. You were a great co-worker and great friend and an even better human being.
I will miss your hysterical sense of humor and your friendship whether it was Sea Isle, West Chester, Conshy or the City there will always be something there to remind me of all the great laughs. I know you are in a much better place now and I know that we will see each other again friend. In the mean time my heart and prayers goes out to your amazing family who should be so proud of your greatness.
See you around my friend

I knew Tim for 13 years- from elementary school through to high school graduation. He was such a funny and intelligent person. If had one word to descibe him it would be genuine. He is always someone I think about when reminiscing of the formative years-school plays, playing practical jokes, dances, going out on "group dates" with the The St Johns crew, laughing at the moon pie incident at St. James- essentially growing up together.
I am truly saddened and can not imagine the saddness that the Collins family and Tim's loved ones are experiencing. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Pat, Chuck and family, Though we are far away we send our prayers and love to you all. We were fortunate to know Tim as a young child when the Collins and Babij children were at Saint Michael's School. We have always felt like close family, not just friends. Tim grew into a lovely young man. As a teenager he and Matt helped us with projects around our home. They painted the walls in our basement pool table room, getting quite a bit of white paint on themselves in the process. Walt remembers how Tim helped him dig out the bottom of our above ground pool on several hot summer days and also Tim's quip during Passover dinners- "Don't be bitter, Herb." Tim will always be in our hearts and prayers.
With thoughts of deepest sympathy, Karlene and Walt

Tim and I have known each other since Kindergarten at St.Michael's. He was a great friend. The memories of Tim and his family are too many to list. Some of the ones that I recall most are when we went to many Phillies games together with his family and mine. We built a couple of great snow forts together when we were kids in the winter, and sometimes we used to play old Atari games in his basement. Most of all, Tim had a terrific sense of humor. He could take any word and turn it into something hilarious. I will miss him a great deal. May God bless him and his family always.

Having attended St. Michael's School with Tim, Tina, and rest of the Collins family, I have been very fortunate to have known Tim during my childhood. I'll never forget his smiles and his wonderful sense of humor. He had a gift for turning ordinary situations into something funny and memorable. Some of my fondest memories of Tim are when he would sing and dance to song parodies he'd make up to "La Bamba" and "Too Many Fish in the Sea" while dancing on the deck of our pool when we were kids. Tim will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and to all the Collins family. May God Bless you always.

Pat, Chuck, Tina, Matt, Marisa, and Patrick, my heartfelt condolences on this tragic loss; a loss indeed felt terribly throughout our whole family. I had the great fortune to have a nice long talk with Tim after Uncle John?s funeral Mass at which Tim gave such an impressive and loving eulogy. Tim took my praise with great modesty and we laughed a good deal together. Later, I remarked to my parents and brothers that cousin Tim had become quite a man; the kind of guy that you?d really like to hang out with.... I pray for the peaceful repose of Tim?s soul. May the good Lord be close to you all.

My friend, I have too many memories to share, too many wonderful things to say about you. I wish I didn't lost touch as I did with you, because it is too late now. Wherever you are, keep them laughing and having fun up there. I know you are having a ball meeting all the old bad celebrities we used to goof on and laugh at over the years. Make sure you say hello to Shirley and Mama for me. You will be missed my old friend.

TC and I spent a good amount of time together on the R6 to and from work. Whether we were discussing some Philly sports team's likely demise, weekend plans with friends and family or city politics, TC's sharp wit and keen sense of humor made every conversation interesting. I will miss and fondly remember those times spent together and his unique insight. Not many people could make a SEPTA ride enjoyable.
My prayers go out to his family.

My fondest memories of Tim are always ones in which he had made me laugh. As one of the most intelligent and witty human beings I've ever known, he was also among the most down to earth and approachable people I've known as well. I knew Tim since Kindergarten. We went to the same high school and then neighboring colleges. Though we were close in proximity, we ultimately lost touch. But I knew that if I ever saw him again, he would be just as funny and welcoming as always. Now I know that chance meeting will never take place. But I know that Tim is now smiling from Heaven.
My sincerest condolences to his family - his parents and siblings especially. May the love of Christ strengthen you all at this time of loss.

We can't pay tribute to TC without remembering his love for horse-racing, the Price is Right, good music, Philly sports, the Ghandi t-shirt he always wore on laundry day, Beetlejuice, Ali G, Quizzo, the Karate Kid, and CT from the Real World Paris. On the flip side, I will always remember his extreme disdain for hipster doofuses and household pets. TC was such a unique, intelligent, witty, and overall amazing person...I am so lucky to have called him one of my closest friends. He will never, ever be forgotten.

The good ones go first. TC was a great one though. I worked closely with TC for 2 years at Ecount and remained friends with him after I left a couple years ago. Intelligent, funny, caring, honest ? these are just a few of the words that describe a genuinely great human being who was loved by many. One thing that really stood out about TC for me was his commitment ? to work, school, friends and family. Whether it was staying late at work to get something done, going to class each Saturday to finish up his degree, or just meeting someone at a Phillies game, TC was dedicated to the task at hand and the people in his life.
TC, you were a great friend who will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Collins family.

Tim is a very funny guy. I noticed that everytime he did something wrong, his face turns red, speechless and then a smile. One memory I had with him is one day he came to me and asked me to hook up wireless network card for his laptop. I asked him what's this for. He spoke while laughing: " To break into my neighbor wireless network". I thought "hey, this guy is pretty honest", then I told him: "Do you know that your job title is fraud and risk Managment at Ecount?". He pause...His face started turn red and then a "shy type" smile followed. Tim is a good friend, pleasant, funny and we miss you Tim.

Since I knew Tim for nearly all of my life, I cannot begin to describe how much of a loss everyone who knew him will feel. I can only say this; Tim was a bright, kind, generous man, and I will cherish forever the memories we shared together growing up. Like the jalapeno peppers. Or the summer nights at the swim club. Or the silly audio cassettes he used to make. Or any of the countless other times we laughed together. We will miss you Tim, more than words can describe. We will keep your memories alive and you will continue to exist in our minds, hearts, and souls.

The last time we saw Tim was at a recent Phillies game, he was dressed in a suit and tie and in classic Tim Collins humor, he explained to us that this was how he always dressed for the "business persons special ". We will treasure that memory and smile every time we think about it.
We share in your grief and will miss him very much.

From the Erin Express to Wing Bowl to taking your money in No Limit, to talking about Sea Isle City, you made it all the better. You will be missed but never forgotten.

TC and I started the 5pm to 2am shift at Ecount four years ago. I had the opportunity to work very closely with Tim and quite frankly, I wouldn't be in my current position without him. He not only made the long nights at Ecount tolerable, he made them a pleasure.
I can still hear the "Ahh, you stupid Irish Jerk" quote TC loved so much, and his Beetlejuice impression which always killed.
I will miss you TC!!

We are so lucky that through our sister Jill we have been welcomed into the Collins family. Tim often accompanied Matt to events and we liked to refer to him as the Collins family ambassador.Favorite memories of Tim include showing up with Matt at our Christmas Eve gathering , the morning after our Halloween party Tim asleep on the couch in a cape and mask, and charming his way into World Cafe Live for free after we all paid $25! Tim's smile was contagious and his intelligence always livened up the conversation. He forced us to contemplate- why DO we have pets? Tim will be sorely missed but always remembered with a smile.
