My boyfriend doesn’t know the first thing about flowers but the personnel in your florist shop helped him buy a lovely flower bouquet for my mothers 65th birthday. If you can teach him to appreciate flowers, you can teach anyone!(Jeanne Davey, Cleveland OH )

Alba Illinois Offices

 

I have dealt with certain delivery companies before who could not handle a slight discrepancy in the address with any smarts at all. It seems like if two numbers in a zipcode are transposed, it stops them in their tracks and they delay a couple days and charge you half again as much. I admit that I sometimes get zipcodes wrong. My memory isn’t what it used to be. But someone over there recognized the mistake I made on a flower delivery and it didn’t slow them down a whit. I wish I knew who it was, because I would thank them from an old woman, so I’m saying thank you to you for possibly training your flower delivery people that way.(Bonita R. , Houma LA )

I can't believe you have same day delivery. I've actually done it a couple of times and I still can't believe it. At lunch, I ordered a vase with red roses for my husband. And he got them while he was still at work. You people are incredible. Thank you!(Bev I. , Newark OH )

I said to my fiancé that flowers would liven up his birthday, but it wasn’t until we visited your florist shop that I finally realized how special flowers can make an occasion. And the birthday party was exceptional, thanks in no small part to yourselves.(Gina Cox, Boston MA )

Alba Illinois Schools

 

I don't know if you keep records on these or if you remember me or anything like that. My name is Kathy [U....] and I sent a note to you about two weeks ago that I thought your ordering system was nice before I ever sent anything. Well, let me say that the delivery of the flowers to my parents in Oregon was just as satisfying as the ordering process. The blooms were wonderful and they're still wonderful these two weeks later. My mother thanks you also.(Kathy U., Mission Viejo CA )

I found you have a website and thought straight away of sending a gift basket to my Aunt in New England who recently gave birth to a bouncing baby girl. She emailed me a photo of her new arrivals and the flower delivery was as beautiful as my new cousin!(Beverley Goodchild, San Francisco CA )

Alba Illinois Business

 

How come I order from you for all my friends and family, but they all order from some schmo who can’t get it right? I tell them many many times, drop as many hints as I can, but no one listens to me and I have to suffer for it. Sheesh. I think you make it look so easy that they think anyone can do it.(Luanne B., Portland ME )

My son will sadly never return from hospital. I will visit your floral shop at a later date and thank you personally for the tremendous flowers and gift baskets of fruit he has received.(Brian Yaldren, Portland OR )

Alba Illinois Funeral Homes

 

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)
