Dear friends,
We think the custom of
expressing sympathy bv sending
flowers is a beautiful one.
There is comfort in these floral
expressions.
Those who say, "I prefer
to give my flowers to the living
rather than to the dead" should
remember that flowers at a
funeral are a great comfort to
the living as well as a respect
ful tribute to the deceased.
Respectfully,
