EllisB Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) It is with great sadness and disbelieve that John DeMott has left us to join the great plant heaven. He was instrumental in the South Florida nursery industry as well as the Palm Society. I had the pleasure to work with him through the good and bad times. He inspired many. Rest in Peace John, You will be missed. Ellis Edited November 18, 2018 by EllisB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jglock1 Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Judy and I are saddened by this news. John was at our place in the Keys about a month ago. He was always gracious and very generous to Judy and I. He will be missed. Rest In Peace John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
