I just discovered that "High-Pockets" has left our presence. I thought the world of B.J., I worked with him at Puregro Co for several years. To this day I have in my home a reminder of him. When he retired from Puregro, he was going to discard some ducks that he had in his office and I asked for them. He gave them to me and I see them on a daily basis, as they are displayed in my home. I will miss him so very much. I found him to be quite a "kick in the pants".

I noticed Mr. Cannon worked for Pure-Grow. My father, Hollas L. Wheat, worked for Pure-Grow when I was growing up. My Dad retired in 1977 and passed away in 1995.
