So sorry to learn of Keith’s passing.
He was a truly remarkable man, husband, father, grandfather and as a family you all must be very proud of his achievements. What a great life he has had and family he has.
He was a true gentleman and so plant knowledgeable. I still have the plant [Money Tree/Jade Pant] he gave me as a cutting when I visited him!
Condolences to you all.
