    Re: Flowers for the memorial service

    Ordered the arrangement today. I asked her if there was any way to get me a pic of the arrangement before they took it to the Chapel, she said she would see what she could do. I will call again Thursday to see what she come up with as far as a pic. The rest of the monies that are collected will be sent out to the UPBC at the request of the family.

    You all are the ones who collectively allowed this to happen, I just made a few phone calls. The response was overwhelming. Rich made a lot of friends here, and it shows.

    Thanks for putting this together, Hammer.
    I think it's great for Rich's family to see how he positively affected people all over the country.

    Re: Flowers for the memorial service

    Hammer, the flowers were spectacular, and the family used them at the main rostrum. I didn't have a camera, but I'm hoping someone else got a picture of them.

    Cool, I am glad they enjoyed them.

    I was on the phone today several times with the flower shop explaining how important this was to us, and it was their job to convey our appreciation for Rich's friendship.

    Re: Flowers for the memorial service

    Hammer, the flowers were phenomenal. It was very warming to know they represented the thoughts and prayers of all Richard's friends here. Frenchie took a pic for you that she'll post later when she gets home...

    Beautiful.

    I'm struggling to believe Hammer coordinated something so pretty.

    Yes, the palm of his right hand.

    Agree with everyone else. It was a beautiful arrangement, Hammer did great and the pics definitely don't do it justice.
