In the floral shop business you encounter all kinds of. I emotional times. Both good and bad. Weddings, anniversaries, Birthdays etc are the good times. Today was a very hard one for Katie Aaron, my daughter and designer.
She used to teach at the elementary school where Brandon was her student. He’s the young man that fatally fell/jumped from the bridge last week that involved 5-6 cars. Those people will have PTSD for years I am sure.
Today was his funeral & Katie had several orders for his funeral. She had to deliver them because I am out of town working a hat show with my husband. She knew him, cared for him & had to deliver the flowers for his funeral. She knows the intimate details of his death & it’s heartbreaking. It is always an honor to design flowers in loving memory of someone. It can also be designed with tears running down your face. Katie had that experience today walking into his service. He died way too soon, such a sweet young man.
Prayers for him & his family & Katie tonight.
