In thanks for the many years Bill worked for me as my gardener.
It was a pleasure to have Bill around seeing his smiling face, his chatter, his concern for detail in leaving my garden looking perfect all those years till his retirement.
My family joins me in thanking him for all those years
Rest in peace Bill.
