Timothy J Steele

West Point, 2009

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by 1LT James Gorby on August 29, 2011:

Tim,

I was shocked when I heard of your death. I regret your loss and will extend my deepest sympathy and regards for your wife and daughter.

Perhaps there was no-one at West Point who embodied the spirit of a Soldier more than you, nor anyone who had such zeal and enthusiasm to be a cadet and learn the craft of officership. You were a man of action and not words. When you set yourself a goal, you pursued it with 100% effort.

I will never forget how you were a source of inspiration and pushed me personally. You always meant the best and always had a sardonic sense of humor that lighted up the worst of situations. I only wish I could have gotten to know you better.

Rest in peace and go with God.

Best,
James
