I enjoyed the forum but it’s time to walk away. People always get what they give from this world. I pray for those of you who are decent people have many blessings. Rest assured God has some amazing things planned for the future.
Thanks Clark! You have been a fine example of decent humanity. If I ever get to that part of the country I would surely like to shake your hand!

Thank you i feel likewise about you! I’m the type of person who nobody ever needed to wonder about. I say things straight as those like yourself understand. The best things in life are always the future.

Sometimes we need a break from our daily routine. You will be missed.

Sometimes we need a big deep breath to take it all in. You’re often on my mind when I think of pears and my first days in the orchard.
You will be missed. I hope not for long.

I’m fairly new to the forum but I have greatly enjoyed reading many of the threads you were heavily involved in. I’m planning to plant Clark’s crab next year and also dive further into some of the pear varieties you have recommended.
More than anything your faith and kindness have been inspiring for me. I will miss seeing your posts. Good luck to you sir.

Clark, you have been an amazing contributor to this forum both with your posts and as moderator. I understand if you want to walk away, I’ve walked away from a lot of things in my life. But you are always welcome back any time, tomorrow next month or next year.

I hope you change your mind- you have had so many topics and so much time invested recently, maybe you are just burned out… temporarily (I sure know what that feels like here). Never say never.
Meanwhile, your wise, generous and very kind spirit as well as your high passion for fruit will be missed. You are one reason I haven’t disappeared from this forum.
