We are taking Mom to Arlington National Cemetary on Friday, August 14th, to be with my Dad. Their 51st wedding anniversary would have been Sunday, August 16th. I am giving all the kids, grandkids and great-grandkids this picture of my Mom, taken at my brother's wedding. The flowers are from the arrangement from her memorial service, shown below. One rose for each child, grandchild and great-grandchild.

Paula that is beautiful. I did an a
"rose" arrangement in glass from Dad's flowers. He passed in 1980 and it still shares my heart to this day. Your picture with the flower is absolute one to be shared and will be loved forever.
