    I had the pleasure of interviewing "Tiny" for a radio show I hosted a couple of years prior to his death. Very humble man, whom I admired. Rest in peace, Herbert. Safe travels, Jordan.

    Thanks so much for remembering Tiny Tim. I remember him when i was a young girl; He was on Johnny Carson a great deal and I remember when he married his 1st wife on live TV. He was always a very charming, sweet man who treated everyone with respect. That is why he stayed and played for those who took the time to wait, even if it was just a couple of folks. God bless his memory. He was the best of the original performers. You don't see that anymore.

    I said hello to Tiny Tim at the MSP airport back in the 70’s and thanked him for his entertainment. He was very shy and averted his eyes, but was polite and smiled.

    Tiny Tim came to Niantic, CT to open a new bridge to Waterford, CT! He sang for everyone and talked to us, I was so happy to meet him! He stayed with all of us for the whole day. RIP Tiny Tim.

    I was lucky to meet Tiny Tim in a hotel elevator making his way to his show. My girlfriend and I were just trying to get to the roof of the only big building in Torrance Ca. He was quite large and literally the most gentle man I have ever met. He kindly gave us a table stage side for the show even though we were under age for the venue. Good show too. I liked him.

    I grew up in Rochester MN. One day in the 80's at the local mall I hear someone yell "HI TINY TIM!", I look over and Tiny Tim turns around and waves and then continues walking his way. It wasn't until years later I read he lived in Minnesota.
    And that's my Tiny Tim story.

    I was going to ask you or someone to do Tiny Tim. Don’t know why I’m interested in him but I am glad you did this. Did not mean that. I do remember “tiptoe through the tulips”. He was such a one off but such an interesting man.

    Interesting to hear about his life & how he got started. Just hearing how the band leader treated him on his last day of life said to me that this is how he was treated most of his life. There were alot of people who loved him and he did stay true to himself & his faith throughout his lifetime.
    RIP Tiny Tim.

    A name I have not heard in a long time. I do remember Tiny Tim even though I was grade school age. I NEVER made fun of him, even though others did. I was a special kid myself is why I would NEVER poke fun at anyone who was " Different ". My older brother Tim liked him and thought he was Funny. I do remember seeing Tiny Tim on Johnny Carson. Nice job on this one, Thank you, Jordan ! 😊

    I remember when I was very young in the early 70s and my class was on a field trip at an airport. We were all standing near a fence where the planes parked and people unboarded the plane.. then I heard the teacher say "Is that Tiny Tim? It is!" Kids...you can go home and tell your parents you saw Tiny Tim! I had no clue who he was, just have the memory of a tall, slender man with long, brown, curly hair walking into an airport terminal.

    I met Tiny Tim in 1986 at a circus in Pennsylvania. He signed an autograph picture for me. He was very nice but after the circus was over, I was walking outside of the tent and he kept following me. Had no idea what he wanted haha but he scared me so I ran home. I had my two year old son with me. Today, my son loves to tell that story, although most of his friends have no idea who he is.

    As a kid I thought he was crazy. Now that I'm grown up, I realize it was mostly a character he created. Like Marilyn Monroe, she created this dizzy blonde act she'd do in public, and it did work for her. She became a house hold name. Now I'm sure she was far more intelligent than she seemed. As a kid you don't realize all that. Anyway I see Tiny Tim in a different light now. I bet he was a great guy.

    If you get the chance, you should check out the Lakewood Cemetery Chapel. The interior is incredible. The dome is completely covered in mosaic. It truly is on par with any Renaissance chapel in Italy.
