The Franchise King® | Learn How To Become A Franchisee

William Arthur Gardner, September 11, 2001

For 18 years, William Gardner called his wife, Liz, every morning when
he got to work. Last Mother's Day, {2001} he bought her a fig tree, in
celebration of their Italian roots. It produced one little fig last
summer. She ate it a week or so after Sept. 11. It was delicious.

William was employed at Cantor Fitzgerald as a systems analyst, and his office was in the World Trade Center.

I found this short letter written by William's wife on an online tribute page;

Liz also said this, of William;

"He made me feel like Cindy Crawford, and believe me
I'm not. I always said this is too good to be true, this
can't last. Because he was just that devoted to the three
of us. He was extremely devoted to me. I had it good, I
really did. I think that's why I go on, because we had it
so good. I want my kids to have that, too."

“The fantastic thing about Joel is his neutrality. Because he is not getting an incentive fee, he will always give you the advice that you need (even if not what you necessarily want) and that's pretty unique these days. Thank you Joel!"
