Tulips at Fremont High School, Spring 2007
Bob Stahl's Labor of Love
Every spring the tulips in front of Fremont High School,Sunnyvale, California, become a source of visual pleasure. Passers by stop to admire them and walk around the flower beds. Motorists waiting for change of light at Fremont Ave and Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road take advantage of the stop to feast their eyes.
Recently, an article by Erin Hussey in the Cupertino Courier caught my attention and I learnt about Bob Stahl, the man who started planting the tulips when he worked as facilities manager at Fremont High.
Photographs of the tulips follow. If you have time, spend a few minutes to read what Erin Hussey wrote about Bob Stahl. It is a story of a man, his labor of love and how it turned his life around. Heart warming piece of writing.
