Loving thoughts and sympathy to Brian’s family. Brian will be sorely missed at Big Jims, he would always stop for a talk. Brian’s hanging baskets, well what can one say about them, absolutely beautiful always admired, look up at the garden centre and see all these baskets of colour hanging there. Thankyou Brian for making up my baskets over the years. Rest in Peace dear Brian.
Our thoughts and sympathies are with you for the passing of Brian. He was always an absolute gentleman and a legend in horticulture. We know he had a group of customers who always sought his advice. He will be missed.
