Our condolences to all family and friends we are deeply sorry for your loss. His memory is within all who shared his love.
I had the pleasure of volunteering with Maarten at Parkwood for several years. While we and the garden team tended the various plants and flowers, Maarten would share his vast knowledge of flowers and plants. There was such a void when his declining health forced him to leave at age 87. No one could grow orchids like Maarten. My sincere condolences to his family, Lynne Webb
