Sad news out of Picton, Ontario. Bill Greer, a world class grower of AGs and all around gentleman, passed away Sunday afternoon (June 1st). Bill had planted his pumpkins with his sons about 2 weeks ago. Bill will be sadly missed by all whose lives he touched.

What a wonderful guy who has now gone to heaven to watch over all of us now. I have read somethings on Bill and last winter I was finally lucky to get some seeds from him. Also a very nice short letter from him. A super nice guy. My Condolences to his family.
