On that note, I just wanted to say, thank you to all of you on this list, still living, who have been so generous with your time and knowledge. I am new to the fruit world-- married into it a couple of years ago--- and have learned so much from this list. In the 2 or 3 years I've been on it, I notice the same topics come up over and over again, and people still reply, again, and share their experience with those of us who don't know so much. So THANK YOU all of you.

This fall, when I pruned my grapes and flattened them to the ground (as
I have to do up here), I realized that reading Lon's book had made my
life easier. My new pruning system made the vines more manageable.
I thought I might thank him for that sometime. I never did do that but
now I really wish I had. It never occurred to me that I should hurry
because time might be running out.

I am shocked and saddened to hear of Lon's passing. He was incredibly generous with his extensive knowledge, and we are all poorer without him. Thanks, Lon, for teaching me how to prune and train grapes, and for helping me pick my next vine. I will miss you.
