I just want to express my sympathy on your loss and share that Mr & Mrs Gnall were some of my first customers and were always pleasant to talk with. They also let me come out to their property & cut white pine branches down for evergreen arrangements! I really appreciated that at the time! Although it is so sad losing a parent, I smiled when I saw his photo as it brought back those memories. Sincerely, Hannah Pennewell Poole
