Hi Folks,
My dad, Big John, passed away on August 28. You guys were a big part of his life, he had your comments and articles posted on the walls of his office. At the service there were many pictures of him and his pumpkins, and the cranes he had to use to get them out of the back yard.
Anyway, I now have his seeds and his books and next year I'll be trying to carry on. I will need your help, as I live in the desert. Wish me luck. Thanks for all you added to his life.
