In Memory of Ed Winkle
Agrarian Lifestyle farm advocacy No-tillEd Winkle, a fellow blogger and consultant passed away last week and was buried yesterday. Ed's blog was Hymark High Spots. He sometimes wrote more than one entry in a day, and he wrote on a wide variety of topics. His last blog was March 30 concerning his health. At that time he was still optimistic about treatments.
So how did Ed touch me? He was about the only reader who commented regularly here to start with. His comments were always kind. He also used Facebook and twitter to get his message out. I never met Ed in person, but he always seemed like a friend. his Facebook page was loaded with comments on his passing. No-Till Farmer printed a testimonial to Ed as well. Ed was a true supporter of agriculture and conservation.
