The ups and downs of being a village florist. I had a visit, this morning, from the grand daughter of one of my favourite, and loveliest customers. Her grandma, always stops in the shop, for a chat, on her way past. Peggy struggles to walk, but manages with two sticks, and wont be beaten....shes a stalwart. Her grand daughter asked if I did funeral flowers, and I said yes of course I do. What sort of arrangement do you have in mind? She said, im not really sure...but my grandma Peggy loved daisies. I didnt know that she was Peggys grand daughter, until she said this. And I was so upset when I realised who she was talking about. She said my grandma always loved calling in to see you, and having a chat, and I want you to do her funeral flowers for her It brought a lump to my throat; it was very hard not to cry in front of her. Peggy has lived in the village all her life, and is very well known....and I will miss her very very much.
