There are several ways of doing this, anything from a switch statement
to function pointer. But the easiest way is to have to separate classes.
(shown) Hope this helps.

class MyTimer : public TimerHandler {
public:
        MyTimer();
protected:
        virtual void expire(Event * e);
        MyAgent * agent_;
};

void MyTimer::expire(Event * e)
{
        agent_->FunctionOne();
}

...

class MyTimer2 : public TimerHandler {
public:
        MyTimer2();
protected:
        virtual void expire(Event * e);
        MyAgent * agent_;
};

void MyTimer2::expire(Event * e)
{
        agent_->FunctionTwo();
}
