The Battle Is Won!!

My Dad Died Yesterday.
**************************

Some of my customers might know. But my Dad had been battling cancer for a couple of years. And just recently he won the battle (I say won - he died yesterday). But you dont loose the battle against Cancer. Everyone who has ever died of Cancer has won in my eyes. Especially my dad. He was a warrior and I have learned from his quiet get on and do attitude to dealing with it.
My Dad was a big supporter of this little business venture - Kingdom Plants. And followed every development with pride and great interest. He was perhaps my greatest supporter along with my wife.

I used and abused (broke) his mower when I couldn't afford my own. He ran his own businesses for most of his life. And now I find myself inspired to do the same. It is perhaps why we had such a special connection the daring to believe that you can do it on your own. And make it happen.

I plan to carry on my gardening through this period of loss as much as I can.
It is good to work with your hands and my gardening and plants business will give a welcome focus.

Thanks always to all my customers and supporters. Those I know personally and those who follow me from a distance. Thanks also to my wife and kids (another good support) without whom I would be lost.

My love to you all.

Adrian.
