Him + old man Saul fixed more Fairmount races than anyone. Another substance abuse who dropped like a stone finally. Not shedding any tears. Cheated many honest horsemen he competed against.

I've told this story about Tim before but here is what I will remember about him. I've had a few interactions with Tim starting along long time ago back even before I had horses with Earl Luttrell. My buddy knew Tim and Tim drove and trained a horse named E A's Thunde out of Earl's stud E A Roberts. Tim would tell them don't bet until I tell you too. Then when Tim said he's good to go E A's Thunder would always win (at least every time I can remember).

Then Tim worked for Erv Miller when I had my horses with Erv. One Saturday we headed down to Springfield to watch No Muffler train and was going to eat with Erv and his crew after they were done for the morning. Well they got done much faster than Erv expected! Well Tim had pulled an all nighter and had arrive at the barn like 4 in the morning and by the time Erv and the others had arrived Tim was almost done feeding and jogging all the horses! Tim had done it all himself! So we had a lot of time to fill before lunch. Van De HeeDee was at the barn too that Saturday.

I can't speak for anybody else but Tim was always nice to me, my wife and my kids. I can't remember exactly but I believe Tim was one of the ones who gave my kids a ride in the jog cart. They loved it.

At that time I remember Erv saying Tim was going to take a few of Erv's horses to Dover to train and drive. Dover had gotten the slots and Morgan was in the process of leaving. I don't remember how long Tim stayed there but smart phones didn't exist so I remember looking in the back of Horseman And Fairworld at the weekly results to see if Tim had won any races with Erv's horses. 

Again, my condolences to Tim's family. R.I.P.

I don't know Robert Smolin, never met him. I do believe that the poster that calls himself robert smolin is not the teal person. Just my opinion. Here is my thought. This poster has crossed the line here. Tim Curtin was a good person. There is no reason to put any crap up about him. Brad

He's saying on Facebook that it isn't him posting this crap.

Tim was a great guy
Prayers to his family & friends

Sad news. Tim drove a few for me and I felt he always gave me a live drive. Always polite and friendly. Condolences to his family. RIP

Great guy Ansolutely terrible news. Every time he’s in a race you can see him getting after a horse and pulling/trying and to me that’s all that matters. To whoever wrote he cheated you watch his last 10yrs worth of drives. RIP Tim gone way to early and I saw for one how much you improved as a driver this year. Hope to see you in heaven racing

Fucking Steve Woodall as usual

Even worse than the time he rambled on about his sisters kid dying 5 years before

His mental disability is worse than the bad legs

I'm going to stifle my laughter here, but so true.
