Dear Tony, I miss you my friend. In your long life you experienced the very best and the very worst anyone could come across. You were an exceptional man and had achieved so much, we always had something to talk about. You shared the positive but kept the negative to yourself. Always an old-fashioned gentleman and so generous, you kept me in After Eight Mints, tomato plants and runner beans :) Not to mention the snowdrop plants. They have flowered in abundance in my garden this year Tony, as they always did in your Tintern garden. Every year I will welcome them back to my garden, they will always remind me of my dear friend.
