"We?re saddened to hear about the loss of one of our favorite Christmas tree people, whom we depended on for advice and camaraderie. He was so generous with his time and tree knowledge, especially with our granddaughters as they were just starting out. We picked up many pointers visiting his farm and visiting with him and with Gisela, who were both so welcoming. NY Christmas tree farmers will miss his warm hellos. -Larry, Martha, and Suzanne Stokoe"
