My mother, Steina Bessette, worked for Bob years ago. He taught her everything she knew about the greenhouse and nursery business. She had the upmost respect for him and thought he was one of the most decent men she had the privlege to work for. She lost her battle with cancer in January and am sure they are trading stories and rekindling the good ole times they shared. He will be missed by everyone. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family.

Trust and respect are the qualities that come to mind from our relationship with Bob Heifner. He was a good friend to us and to the Nature Life business. He will be missed by the nursery industry and certainly by us.
We send our sympathy to Justine and the family.

I was fortunate to know Bob through my wife, who was longtime manager of Burns Floral (around the corner on Fairlawn). He was a fine man, my deepest sympathy to his family and friends. He is probably talking to my Mom, who loved every kind of tree that God made.

As an employee of Soil Service Nursery, I met Mr. Heifner through his daughter Brenda. This man was a wonder and leaves a big hole in the nursery world as well as with his family and friends.
