Bethune South Carolina 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 )

My best day this year was seeing the look on my five-year-old's face when she saw the giant package of flowers that my father sent to her on her first day of kindergarten. They arrived early, to my surprise, so that Linden could see them before she went. It was a special start to a special day, and she wanted to bring them to let the rest of the class enjoy them. By all accounts, they did. I don't know if this would have been possible with another flower distributor, but I'm glad they were possible with you. I sent my thank you's to Linden's grandfather, and now I'm sending you my thank you's.(Ashley E., Williamsport PA )

I don't think many guitar shops have a big bunch of flowers on show at the checkout. My husband was reluctant at first, but once he saw we were getting more female custom too he was OK – anything to get more female drummers, he says!(Janey T. Wallace, Denver CO )

Boy, you guys are great. Thanks for the service I received just to send a plant to my mother in Sheboygan. I love Russia and its many layers, but I've been homesick for a long time now. It's going to be a while before I get to be home again, but it feels like every time I send a gift over there, I'm sending a little piece of me also.(Ross D. , St. Petersburg , Russia)

I don't trust any flower shop that doesn't use FTD. I also don't trust any flower shop that messes up an order, no matter how small or big. My business, at bottom, is about persuasion, and if my persuasive powers are undermined by a poorly delivered PR gift, then I look bad, which makes you look bad. I say this as a theoretical, because I have never had occasion to complain about any bad things: The fact is, there haven't been any bad experiences I've had sending gifts to other businesses, provided I use you folks.(Kirk V., Prescott AZ )

You are pretty much the only place that delivers flowers that I have ever worked with that really cares about how your customers feel about you. You must have legions of loyal fans because of how well you treat everyone. I wish you much success!(Mira R. , Warsaw , Poland)

I started using you for flowers and gifts when I was in the U.S. Now that I'm overseas, I'm glad that I can still use you for the same things. It's almost as if I never left, except people speak a foreign language here. I guess I'm the one speaking a foreign language here, but you get the idea. Anyways, I want to say that even though I'm not in America any more, it is comforting to know that some things stay the same.(Lucy V. , Stockholm , Sweden)
