Here’s the rest of the post that Gardner deemed too mushy for the front page of a so-called FOOD blog.

Gardner was… a cute kid.

Gardner has always been…a great brother, son and grandson.

Gardner is…a fun, loyal friend.

Gardner was…a great boyfriend. 

Gardner, no surprise, is… a fantastic, caring husband.

He’s also a…. loving, snuggly dad.

…an easy, happy travel companion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…a talented chef, a devoted student (past tense!), a good tennis partner, an easy conversationalist…and SO, so much more.

I love you, Gardner. Happy Birthday!!
