Grand Rapids Michigan Cemetery

 

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 son Tony lives away but never fails to have flowers sent to me every week. I now know the flower delivery man personally and we’ve become good friends. Thank you for giving a middle-aged lady her second wind.(Rachel Tennant, Fort Worth TX )

After an extended stay in the States, I am prepared to say that I like China better. This is not to say that I would not enjoy a life over there. I think my wife and I could enjoy a life together just about anywhere. But I have to say that I prefer my home country. I have made many friends and learned about many things that I can use now that I am back at home and teaching. One of the things I learned was how to use your website to send good-will gifts, like flowers and plants that people keep in their homes for a time. I know there are problems with both of our countries, but this is one thing we can agree on, that things that organize and make beautiful the home are well worth the effort(Li-Don W. , Shanghai , China)

As a writer, I love to brighten up my work area - as such I like to pop into your florist shop once a week and buy something to brighten my desk up. A recent Chrysanthemum was a very good recommendation by you.(Annette S. Hunter, Dallas TX )

My anniversary was over two months ago, but the flowers are still going strong. The other stuff too. I really like that it’s lasted so long. Is that you or FTD?(Annie V., Provo UT )

I will admit that my expectations weren't very high. But you absolutely blew them out of the water. I had ten different orders of flowers and plants going to eight different places, and every single one of them came out right.(Tara H. , Vilnius , Lithuania)

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 )

Grand Rapids Michigan Hospitals

 

Every April, I dread having to pick a gift for my mother on Mother's Day. She's so impossible to gift. She hates to go out to restaurants and she doesn't like jewelry (that she never nears). Last year that all changed when I used your website to get her Mother's Day flowers. It was like I had solved a Chinese puzzle. She opened up and actually gave me a warm smile. It was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. This year, my strategy will be the same. Order from you and watch her melt.(Amber T., Lawton OK )
