Steve wasn’t just my late dad’s gardener, he became a friend who my dad was very fond of. Will miss his enthusiasm for gardening, and the happiness on his face when he spoke of his grandchildren. He will be sadly missed xx

  • I was so upset I couldn’t attend the funeral due to a virus moyra, but watched online. You and Steve’s family gave him a lovely send off, and I’m sure my dad would have been waiting to greet him, with his favourite tea and biscuits xx

Steve is sadly missed. We happily worked in my garden the last few years, talking plants, position and colours in my garden and in his. Always positive, enjoying chat over cuppas and biscuits … or cake! Rest in peace Steve.
