Frank Fordyce

[Candace]

Sadly, Frank Fordyce passed away this morning. His breeding and knowledge will be missed.

 

[SlipperKing]

Whoooo That's sad to hear. He spoke at one of our summer workshops on mini cats many years ago. Was he still actively still breeding?

 

[SlipperFan]

I'm sorry to hear that. Another orchid legend passed.

Wish I could have been around earlier to meet him!

 

[NYEric]

WOW! Sorry to read that. Our condolences.

Wow

That's 4 recent deaths now in my little world. I've met Frank, and one of the catt growers in my society worked a lot with him over the years, and were good buddies.

Sad to hear it. I visited his greenhouse in Livermore many times over the years.
