    My Dad (Jim McLary)loved your Dad like a brother and I know they are having a wonderful time in heaven after all these years. I didn't realize that Tim was only a month younger than Dad. I did know they were in the same class. You are so fortunate to have had your Dad with you all this time. Dad went home to be with our Lord over 15 years ago. I miss him so much. Please know that during this time of sadness, you are all in our thoughts and prayers. Jonny & Floyd Beeler
