Veteran landscape professional in the Colorado mountain community Bill Whittaker, Whittaker Landscape Services, suffered a fatal injury on May 4th, 2020 in an accident near his home.

“Bill was a man of high integrity, and anyone who knew him will attest to his great attitude and professionalism,” said Matt Mueller, Siloam Stone, Inc. “The landscape industry has certainly suffered a great loss with Bill’s passing.”

The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, "please make a donation in his name to a charity of your choice and help a fellow human whenever you can.” Memorial services will be planned for a later date.
