Flowers for Mom
We had the committal service for my mother, Allegra Bloy, today. One of the most vivid memories I have of my grandmother’s funeral, was when Mom put a flower into her mother’s grave. At the end of today’s ceremony all of us put a flower into the grave where the urn that holds her ashes rests. The beauty of flowers was something that Mom enjoyed very much. She would often write a comment here on the blog when I posted flower pictures.
So in honor of Mom, here are some shots of flowers I took recently.

Beautiful flowers. Good memory of mother. Thanks for posting them and thoughts of mother and yesterday. Despite the sadness of the day, it was also a good day. You and family members make the continuing of life worthwhile. As our Jewish friends say L’chaim.
