RIP Dan Boyce
Dan Boyce, a beloved member of the giant pumpkin community and a man of the land, passed away recently, leaving behind a legacy rooted in nature, perseverance, and passion.
Best known for growing an awe-inspiring 2,017.5-pound pumpkin, a true testament to his dedication and skill, Dan was a masterful pumpkin grower whose green thumb was rivaled only by the size of his harvests. His prized pumpkin wasn't just a local legend; it symbolized his unwavering patience and love for nature.
When not tending to his garden, Dan could be found casting lines into quiet waters or tracking through the woods. An avid fisherman and hunter, he embraced the outdoors with reverence and joy. Whether it was the thrill of the catch or the stillness of the forest, Dan found peace in nature.
He was a genuine friend who will be remembered for his warmth, humble spirit, and the stories he shared.
