After Emily died, we had hundreds of flowers delivered to the funeral home and church. After Emily was laid to rest at the cemetery… the hundred’s of flowers were delivered to our home. We had baskets/arrangements in every room of the house, on the front porch, on the back porch. Fireplace of flowers
You could not escape the aroma… While at our lowest and most painful time of our life… we awake each painful day to the smell of many flowers, but Lillies overwhelm our senses. Aromatic Lilly
Recently, a friend found a bunch of Lillies at a discount and gave us 4 bunches. We displayed them in our dining room… but as their aroma filled the room… we all felt sick to our stomachs. It made us physically sick to smell the Lillies.They are now frozen in the side yard… Good. The smell of many flowers drags us back to the pain… some day we hope to enjoy the smell of flowers again. Maybe even Lillies.
