Dad passed away this afternoon. He saw a lot in 98 years. He learned to drive with a team of horses hitched to a wagon delivering the milk from the farm to the creamery in Washingtonville up until now when he learned about an IPad to stay in touch with the family. He taught me about working hard, and a conversation about family a couple years ago is the reason Gayle & I have the property we now have. You had a full and blessed life Dad. Say hi to Mom for me. I love you..

Roger Tuthill was one of nicest, best flower and plant grower and interesting man that I have ever met! We were neighbors in Birch Hill for many years ! For many years Roger under took the beautiful flowers that graced the entrance to Birch Hill, what many people do not know is that was no source of water nearby, so Roger with his little Tractor carried buckets of water every day from his home way up on top of the hill down to the entrance, so proper watering could be done ! Thank you Roger for your kindness and dedication, you made the world a more beautiful place with your talent, making things grow ! Rest In Peace, Friend !
