Floral Tribute - Supersprout
« on: March 04, 2007, 19:15:25 »
As suggested on the other thread I am happy to arrange the tribute with any left over money sent to the hospice.

Obviously some of our members will beable to attend the funeral but for those of us who cannot and would like to include themselves in sending a tribute please pm or email me.

I have £15 so far.

Cheques arrived from:

Agapanthus
MrsKP
Grandma
Maggie
Biscombe
Mrs Dunseith


I'm in contact with a florist who is lovely and will do her best to design something unique for our 'supersprout'. I've told her it must include straw and veg of some kind.

If you have any ideas please post them so that I can get back to her today.

Many thanks Emma

Hi OliveOil, glad the cheque arrived safely (Mrs D).  It's making me smile at the thought of this floral tribute with straw and veg in lol  ;D
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened

Hellooooo all - Thanks Kitten - glad you are accounted for!

Just to let people know that it still isn't too late to send in tribute cheques... as I said all left over money will be sent to the hospice but so far we have barely covered the flowers with today's cheques, though I'm sure with the other pledges we should have enough and to send to the hospice too.

Thank you soooo much guys.

Now whilst I'm arranging with the florists... Could anyone make up a short poem to summarise our SS for the card?  I could think of something but team effort here I think!

I know this isn't the place to "advertise" other messageboards, but on another she was active on, there are a number that seem to be able to write poems. Maybe one of them could.

Jeannine and Shilton - have received... thank you so much

Kenkew - loved your poem!

In fact I was thinking there is no reason why we can't submit various poems or messages and I can laminate it and post it over to the florist to send with the flowers.

Bless you OliveOil, thanks for all you have done for us and Sarah.  It is lovely to know we have sent some flowers when I can't get there. I shall plan to do something special to think of her and Will on Thursday.  T.x

Oh sush Kev.. no need for all that malarky

Received from Norfolklass  ;D

Now i just have to write the card and get it over to Fiona (she's been employed by Buck Palace and the Queen to do floral arrangements - only the best for our Supersprout hey!)

Off for a bath and a think of what to write - so much to say on such a little card :(
