Aunt Shirley and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of grief. In time, may your memories bring you comfort. Uncle Gene was a very special person. We were always buddies. We both really enjoyed our gardening. I'll never forget the summer when, after working in his garden for weeks and weeks, all of his tomatoes seemed to stay the same size, nice and red but small. Here they ended up being cherry tomatoes instead of regular tomatoes. We both really got a good laugh.
