Rio Wisconsin Delivery

 

This last Christmas was replete with flowers from you guys. I say this as someone who did not order them, but I noticed your name and thought I would send in a comment. I just wanted to say thanks for making everything less stressful this year. My mother has not been feeling well, and last year the flowers that she ordered didn't arrive until the 27th. Fat lot of good that did. It's been so great to see her smile and mean it.(Annie K., Sarasota FL )

For anyone who has a girlfriend in another part of the country, I have three little words of advice: FTD. It doesn't matter if there's a problem in the relationship, if someone's angry with someone else, if someone misses someone else, or if there's something else going on. Flowers will fix it. Take it from a self-described hound, there's nothing like flowers to soothe the savage beast.(Lyle L. , Lima OH )

Rio Wisconsin Business

 

As a society, we tend to send flowers out of feelings of guilt for not being in a place we would normally be. Before the advent of automobiles and airplanes, we wouldn't stray too far from home (except in a few cases), and so we didn't have a need for sending gifts through the mail, or the Internet, or using FTD, or some other wire service. But we are products of our times, and because even nuclear families are so far flung, and because husbands and wives often live and work on different continents from one another, we have this need to send gifts to one anther in lieu of being there. What we're acknowledging is that we usually do what we can to make compromises between how we would like to live and how we would like to be close to one another. It's apparently socially acceptable to be apart like this as long as we can send each other things that remind us of this emotional connection even though there's no physical connection. ROCK ON, BROTHER!!!(Rey V. , Nagoya , Japan)

Thank you for being a great resource for people like me. I've been married for eighteen years and there's plenty of reasons for me to send my wife flowers even if nothing's really wrong. I guess this is really only useful if you want to keep your marriage together.(Charlie E. , Longmont CO )

The image of the yellow Sunshine Express arrangement of flowers should really be updated to represent the depth and burst of color that you get when you receive one of those things. I was hoping for a yellow that my mother-in-law would like, but instead she got a supersonic yellow barrage that isn't indicated by the image on the website. But it put a smile on her face, and that's all that matters.(Martha Y. , Salt Lake City UT )

Valentine's Day is one of those days where if you have someone to send flowers to, you're happy, but if you don't then you aren't. This year I decided to send out a number of Valentine's flowers to some female acquaintances that I thought I might like to get to know better. As I am writing this, I don't know if any of these will pan out, but I'm glad there was a resource such as you that gave me the opportunity to try something like this. One of my female friends told me off but good, but I figure that you have to put yourself out there in order to actually be out there.(George T. , Pittsfield MA )

I've been told that I'm tone-deaf for giving gifts. Maybe I am. But you make me look good by giving me such great stuff to choose from every time. I don't think I can lose and there's a lot to choose from, so maybe I'll shake my title of being the worst gift-giver ever.(Candyce H. , Columbia MO )

I thank you for putting some joy into the life of one of my closest friends. Sadly, she passed away from cancer recently much too young. The flowers that were delivered to her hospice always brightened her day no matter what her mood was. I tried to visit with her as often as I could, but busy lives often get in the way of such relationships. The flowers she received had no such problems, though. She often said that it was as if I were there, and she would talk to the flowers as if they were me. I say thank you again for putting some life into her death and for giving everyone involved with her, including herself, some respite from the suffering.(Gwendolyn S., Adelaide )
