Sun City Anthem Loses
a
Friend
It is with the deepest sadness that Anthem Opinions reports the passing of a man who, in our opinion, was the greatest "unsung hero" who has ever resided in Sun City Anthem...
Tim Stebbins
For those of us who were privileged to know this kind and gentle man, Tim was "always there" to show his love for Sun City Anthem, whether it be...
...attending almost all Board meetings...
... traveling 15 miles each way to attend many Nevada Real Estate Division sessions...
...journeying to Carson City every two years to lobby members of the State Legislature and Senate to obtain more favorable rights for HOA homeowners...
.. and joining numerous Community Committee meeting sessions...
...all of which were solely intended to MAKE SUN CITY ANTHEM a "better place" for all.

Rana Goodman & TIm Stebbins
His knowledge of NRS 116 was remarkable, and was often contacted by many in the community for his advice.
We at Anthem Opinions were honored by his writing a number of helpful articles over the years pertaining to a topic he embodied:
Proper & fair governance of a Homeowners Association according to Nevada law
Of course no one will ever forget the non-stop purge and obsession by an alternative blogger and many of his disturbed readers, in addition to, those members of various past Boards who relentlessly pursued destroying this man's character again and again, year after year...
...to cover up their costly and inept decisions.
And for those distasteful actions, a lesson should be learned as to the amount of destruction and constant insults individuals can inflict on another simply because of disagreement while that person's sole intention was exposing problems in order that they may be solved.

Those of us residing in Sun City Anthem know how terribly Tim Stebbins suffered immeasurable embarrassment when he and Bob Frank were arrested for a trumped up charge of filing a false police report...
Bob Frank & Tim Stebbins
...a charge that was subsequently dismissed by the court.
His crime?
Trying to expose the incompetence of Sun City Anthem's improperly retaining funds that should have been returned to property owners...
...that resulted in Sun City Anthem's incurring an IRS fine of $100,000 plus accounting and legal fees.
Knowing Tim Stebbins for the 13+ years of my residence in Sun City Anthem, there is no greater honor that can be given this man than...
...realizing his dream of a competent, corrupt-free, and resident friendly Sun City Anthem.
...realizing his dream of a competent, corrupt-free, and resident friendly Sun City Anthem.
He tried to his final day in believing that dream could someday come true.
Tim was truly the "Don Quixote" of Sun City Anthem.
He believed in the goodness of people.
In short...
Tim Stebbins was a GOOD MAN.
Tim Stebbins was a GOOD MAN.
He never wavered in his dedication to truth and honesty no matter what consequences he ever experienced.
He placed meaning in the saying coined by George Bernard Shaw:
God bless you Tim Stebbins.
You will be missed by every person who believes in honesty, integrity, and a fighting spirit filled with kindness without malice.
Your dedication and humility should be the standard of all who ever serve their community.
Claudia & Tim Stebbins
How can we properly honor this man's memory?
By simply making his one Sun City Anthem dedication come true...
...electing a different type of Board who, unlike those who have dominated the past, will honor and respect those they represent.
Our deepest sympathy to his lovely wife, Claudia.

Tim and I had been friends for many years and I will miss not only his friendship and advice on HOA issues, but also the sweet, kind, soft spoken man that he was.
Tim Stebbins truly was the “unsung hero” of Sun City Anthem and those taking the time to attend meetings, would have heard Tim’s attempts at educating the SCA Board of Directors, Staff, and residents.
Tim was one of the most honest, knowledgeable, caring, considerate, and RESPECTFUL residents I met in SCA.
He, graciously, pointed out specific laws that were being ignored or broken to the attention of the SCA Board and Staff, and requested compliance to all laws governing our HOA.
Tim was the most knowledgeable resident on NRS116 in our community and was always available to research further and get answers for any questions about SCA and NRS116 issues that residents were concerned about.
I could elaborate for hours but, suffice to say, he will be greatly missed more than words can say.
His passing is a tremendous loss to us as friends and to the entire SCA community.
Tim’s love for SCA and his quest for the “best run HOA” was endless and his efforts were greatly appreciated.
In my opinion, the NEW residents of SCA will have NO idea that the reference to NRS116 is the state statutes that govern ALL Home Owners Associations. Sadly, they will not have Tim to call or anyone with his vast expertise.
Dick said it best…”Tim will be missed by every person who believes in honesty, integrity, and a fighting spirit filled with KINDNESS without malice.
Our hearts, prayers, and deepest sympathy are with Claudia, Tim’s lovely wife.
R.I.P. Tim
