My dad passed away this morning. He loved plants and flowers. Always had a garden. Loved to plant Morning Glories. How fitting there is a Heavenly Blue Morning Glory plus a Celestial Mix. Happy planting, Daddy!

Bevvie, I had no idea we were on the same path with our fathers. My deepest condolences to you on your loss. The flowers are a beautiful and fitting tribute to your father. My father was an avid golfer, so I plan to place one of his country club ball caps over the middle head rest in the back seat of the car he gave me in his last hours. That way I will be reminded of him everytime I look in the rearview mirror.
Contact me, if you need/want to commiserate.

Bevvie says,

I appreciate everyone's thoughtfulness. C, MMC, and K, thanks.

Bevvie says,

Thank you so much, Tawny. Your father will be pleased to see his country club ball cap in your car. He will be smiling.

Bevvie, I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my own father in 2006. What a beautiful tribute to your Dad you have planned!

Bevvie says,

I appreciate your comment very much, tonyglim!

Greed says,

What a horrible mistress! She always comes at the most inopportune time, in which none really exists. Her stay wears down upon her host like a thousand sorrows.

Bevvie says,

So true, Greed. Death is not kind.

Amapola says,

{{{Bev}}} hope you find peace in the flowers that he loved. Beautiful tribute. Loving thoughts coming your way!
