Pat Tallman sent along this note yesterday:

Dear Friends:
I have recieved so many phone calls I thought I'd just e-mail
everyone. Tim passed away on Friday after being hit by a car on his
motorcycle. His brother will have funeral and trust fund info for us
later today and Julie & I will pass it on. It will also be on the
front page of my website, www.thegalacticgateway.com. I'm sorry to
have to let you know by e-mail.
Take care,
Pat

Tim was on his way to a play rehearsal Friday. He was 49. As more
details regarding the funeral and trust fund for Tim's son Flynn are
available, they will be posted on the website
(http://www.isnnews.net).

The Galactic Gateway (http://www.thegalacticgateway.com/phpbb/) has
set up a special forum so that people can drop by and send notes to
Tim's family. Tim was a marvelous actor and a great guy. His
portrayal of Zathras was just awesome. If you met Tim at a
convention or just enjoyed his portrayal of Zathras or Polix on
Crusade, drop the family a note. I'm sure it will mean a great deal
to them at this time.

Take care,
Sandy
