I will surely miss you, my friend. I’m so glad that we had the last few months to get to know each other better. Whenever I pulled onto the orchard property you appeared within minutes so that we had a chance to catch up on the day’s activities. You always brought a smile to my face as soon as I saw you. I enjoyed your stories and incredible knowledge of everything. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
