My mother, Bob and I enjoyed spreading joy with the precious donations. They have passed away. I have memories of our good times together. The pictures below are some of the people that I have met while giving away free flowers.

Each day, I send up a silent prayer asking God to tell me who needs the flowers that day. And off I go to bus stations, hospices, and hospitals. People always exclaim, “Are they really for me? Are they really free?” I love seeing people smile and laugh and I cherish the gift that being The Flower Lady has been for me. I have a purpose, a routine, and feel a sense of exhilaration after a few hours of passing out much-needed gestures of affection, comfort and friendship to strangers.
