Michael thank you for igniting my passion for flowers, plants and growing things...it's a n HUGE part of my life right now.....and I owe it to you...the story goes....myself and a bunch of crazy friends were living next door to Mike and Bob and I always saw this blonde haired guy outside in the yard digging, moving stuff around and so focused on having the most beautiful garden on the street...this led to the deer eating his plants but no he would not have that...so he rigged up a mannequin with a radio in the hopes that it would keep the deer away....well it worked but also bought too much noise to our quiet hamlet...so I went over there to meet this guy and the rest is history.....Michael had a light like no other, and am grateful it shined on me....Rest in Peace now...and may your spirit fly.....
