Tim, we wanted to express our gratitude to you and your landscaping installation crew for the beautiful trees, bushes and flowers. This was the final step in the restoration process of our family homestead after a devastating fire in February of 2018. It was extra special to be able to the find the same items that had been lost. Your crew was timely and professional, and treated us (and by extension, our property) with great respect and kindness. We appreciate you and your team. Jae/Martha

From:

My dad has always been the “landscaper” in my life. Every time we moved, he’d ask my brother, sister and me what kind of tree we each wanted to plant in our new yard. Then we’d go out to a nursery, pick out trees, and plant them together. It was a way to make our house a home, and we took great joy and pride in caring for our trees.

To:

M Meehan Charlotte, NC

From:

M Hill

I thank Myrna Meehan who retired from Winding Springs Elementary. When she was principal, they built an “International Garden,” with each garden representing an area of the world. There are several weekends a year when volunteers, teachers, students and family come and put down new soil, mulch and plant new plants. The older children do the weed control. Each garden is labeled either countries or areas of the world, and the plants that grow in the gardens are from that particular area. The school community still keeps the International Garden going.

To:

G Lillian Lawson, OK

From:

J Lawson

The “landscaper” in my life was my Grandmother Lillian. She passed away in 1981 and her lilies and perennials continued to bloom for 10 years after her death - that is, without any care from her family. As her only granddaughter, I always loved them and felt they were her way of telling me she was still with me. She was an amazing gardener, even able to grow bluebonnets from seed in her little backyard. The Farmers Almanac was the only thing she referred to for guidance. And, over the years I saw her predict weather just by watching the insects and plants in her yard. Better than Doppler was she. If there is a heaven or an afterlife, she is in a garden somewhere in the universe, making that place more beautiful, too.
