Prayers for David Barrickman
We are sad to report that our long-time honey vendor and friend
David Barrickman of Wildflower Ridge Honey was diagnosed with cancer and is in home hospice care. To David’s great delight, his grandson Skyler Majors who has been his bee-helper since the age of three, has assumed responsibility for and ownership of the business. Please keep David and his family in your prayers.
David wrote an open letter to his friends and customers – read it here.
