Fortunately, Tim had the chance to meet Alyson, who, through her beauty, exceptional merits and goodness of nature, became his life partner. Their unconditional love and harmony of daily life have been the main source of happiness during his last years, and can be exemplary for any couple.

Their life was a wonderful experience together. They cooked together, went for walks together at the beach (or biking), attended shows and various events together (like meditation sessions, tennis and fencing). This is how they enjoyed an exceptional intimacy of their life, with common goals, common commitments and common successes. Everything, wrapped in the purest love possible.

The joy of meeting friends and building a family has always been important to him. Tim and Alyson cared a lot about their families, visiting Montreal and Boston whenever they could, and receiving a visit from their loved ones in Los Angeles or meeting them on various meridians.

Alyson and Tim cultivated very warm relationships with a group of local friends, playing cards, watching shows together or organizing outings all around Los Angeles.

The union between Tim and Alyson has always been a splendid one - and their loyalty spotless. Each of them could leave for duties of their profession, crossing the continents, knowing that returning home will be compensated by a high-quality private life, based on love, harmony and understanding.

Amateurs of cultural but also of nature experiences, Tim and Alyson made a large number of trips together, between 2015 and 2018). In addition to small weekend outings (from ski trips, to conquering the heights of Southern California, to relaxing on Catalina Island or in the great canyons), they visited many of the national parks in the USA and Canada, making frequent escapades in Hawaii.

But, especially, the 3 expeditions made to Madagascar, Indonesia and Central Africa (Kenya and Tanzania) remained a witness to their joy of being together and sharing splendid moments of relaxation and knowledge. These three astonishing journeys were, for Tim, the culmination of his permanent hunger to know - together with Alyson - what lies far away beyond the horizons.
