2. To Whom It May Concern
Greg Cashler has worked for me for over fifteen years helping me to landscape, plant, trim, and
tend to my gardens. Greg grew up learning about gardens from his Grandparents who were in
the greenhouse business so that gardening is instinctual for him. When I give Greg a job, he is
exacting and careful in how he handles the chore until finished. He is honest and always on
time and many times, calls the day or two ahead to be sure we are scheduled for the same
time.
I believe Greg would do an excellent job wherever he is employed.
