I think the old gardener was
"Sister" to the person dead.

it was his brotha from anotha mutha
Sister
Sibling - covers sister, brother, half-sister, half-brother, step-sister, step-brother.
Another relationship could be "oneself".
A third relationship could be next of kin?
Am I analyzing this to death?
1).If he is a friend then is bro ( a common name to call a man friend brother or bro).
2).sister
3).step brother
Sister
ALL WRONG!!!
the answer is servant!
Grave Digger!!!!
mother or father
Older
sister
its obviously batman
duhhh
they were fiendish superheroes?
it's either they're both "WERE" old
or there's no relation because he's dead
1) If Puzzle used "relationship", then answers are:
a. Twin siblings.
b. Any kind'a siblings.
2) If Puzzle meant "relation", without "-ship":
Since old gardener could consider all plants to be his (her) brother. Therefore, the relation could be human-and-plant.
3) If old gardener also died (the Puzzle didn't mention this pt), then the answer is:
The relationship WAS siblings.
4) If old gardener is living, then the answer is:
The relationship IS siblings.
Note: I disagree with some above: If my brother died, he IS still my brother, not WAS.
Final conclusion:
Both siblings have died.
