Becky’s Garden
Found this on FB and thought I would share: (hope it is okay)
It is with a sad heart I inform you that one of the curators of the house at Becky’s Garden passed this earth last night. Please leave a flower on Becky’s Garden, if you are able, for Capt. William Knighton who left us last night. And please pray and hope for healing and peace for his lovely wife, Stephanie, who has lost her mate. Be in peace, Bill.

That is sad. Just this morning we went under the Black Cat bridge and past Becky’s Garden. Fitting to be remembered by unknown folks who appreciated the effort put forth over these many years. RIP.

We passed by Becky’s Garden yesterday and came home to find this news. Very sad but what an amazing legacy he’s left behind!

What is Becky's Garden
Very very sad. May Bill rest in peace.
For those that aren't aware of what or where 'Becky's Garden' is or some of it's history (unfortunately I will raise my hand that I had no clue as to the history): https://weirs.com/keeping-the-legend...-garden-alive/ Just one article and I'm sure many others on the forum have more history than what this article calls out. |
