Hello Darlene,

We are so sorry to hear of Kris's passing. Jim and I were devastated to hear the news just a few minutes ago. We lost Edge to a brain tumor 7 years ago so I am sure she was waiting for him in heaven. We miss her every day. She was so much fun. Spud passed away three years ago so I am sure they were waiting with an honour guard for Kris. God Bless our thoughts are with you.

Sincere regards for the loss of your son. While working with him in the past three years I enjoyed his outgoing and honest personality. His organization and presentation within the landscape industry allowed him to excel at his work. My family and I hope you are able to find peace.
