It seems very strange around here at Nursery Supply.
David would come in grab a cart and pile it full of all the best 2" and 4" foliage we had ,I'd say "David did you leave us anything? He'd smile and say "yeah" sure there's plenty ,I'd say anything "good left?" he'd smile and say I'm only taking these plants here ,there's other plants I'm not taking ...I'd grumble.. are you sure ? "oh I'm sure...he'd say,and he'd dash away before i could check .
That moment in my day will be missed.

KEVIN AND FAMILY, I HAVE WORKED FOR YOUR COMPANY FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS DAVID WAS HERE AT NURSERY ALOT. HE ALWAYS SAID "WELL, HOW IS IT GOING?". AND ON WITH HIS AFTERNOON HE WOULD GO. I WAS LEARNING A LOT FROM HIM AND REALLY RESPECTED HOW HE WANTED US INVOLVED IN THE BUSINESS, NOT JUST EMPLOYEES ON THE PAYROLL. I RECENTLY HAD TO GO TO HIM WITH SOME PERSONAL PROBLEMS I AM DEALING WITH AND HE WAS VERY SYMPATHETIC AND HOPEFUL FOR A GOOD OUTCOME, THAT MENT A LOT TO ME. I WILL MISS HIM PHYSICALLY BEING HERE BUT EVERYTIME I LOOK AT THE BLOOMING PLANTS I SEE HIM INSPECTING EACH AND EVERY ONE! MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
