It’s My Imagination

Sending Flowers In Memorium

I just learned that my very dear friend lost her Grandfather. He really was a great man and someone we always enjoyed chatting with at various gatherings. The entire family had always made us feel a part of their family and when his wife passed away several years ago, a part of him went with her. I truly believe that he is in a much better place now and is back with his beloved wife of more than 50 years.

I feel so bad that we’re not there to attend the funeral and pay our respects. It is just too far and too expensive for us to travel back to Illinois. While I was out shopping on Thursday I picked up a sympathy card and mailed it off yesterday. I also went online and ordered same day flower / floral delivery for the viewing. I’m sure my girlfriend will appreciate both and understand why we can’t be there in person.

While I was ordering the flowers, I was looking into the fact that this particular company also provides many other services including grave site maintenance. I think we all like to thing that the cemeteries take care of those things, but it’s not always the case. They also will provide grave site memorial items, something I’d like to do for my Dad’s grave.

Anyway, it’s all something to think about and consider.
