Oh Ms. Feather, what a lovely story! Poor, sweet Old Man.
I wonder how many years he has been planting that same garden each Spring?
I'm certainly glad you're still here to tell the story!

He has lived in his house for over 60 years, raised his kids there. He is a retired Post Office employee. His wife is still alive and drives their car to get groceries. She taught piano in her home. I know some of her students.
They are very independent.
Actually that is one of two gardens he plants. He sets out frames in Feb to get things going. He is out working everyday for short periods of time. Amazing folks. Mows his own lawn too, with a gas mower.
