As I Went To Bed...
I had a thought.
Don't know if/how I can do it...I'd like to place a single red rose on Mum's coffin just before the curtains close around it...
I'll have a word with the Funeral company when I go to see Mum in the Chapel Of Rest...

Haven't you arranged for some flowers to be placed on the coffin by the undertaker when she leaves the chapel of rest?
That's a lovely idea. I see no reason at all why that wouldn't be allowed.
Thanks...
I had a dream, I seem to have had it for quite some time, no doubt if analised they could find a hidden meaning in it...
I seem to dream about being with Mum sometimes(on my own)and we are on holiday in our favourite resort of Bournemout.
And we never manage to get to see the beach and sea, it is always time to come home...
I'm arranging the buying of my flowers tomorrow, I can't decide whetehr to have a mixture or stick to simple Carnations which we both like. And whether to go for pink or white...I am leaning towards white.
I am also avoiding the usual one many seem to order at a funeral where it spells out Mum. Hope that's ok and even the funeral dirictor said that would not fit on the coffin.
Still not sure what I am going to write on the card that accompanies the flowers...
Probably something like "For Mum, I Will Always Love You, You Mean The World To Me From Your Loving Son. Anthony xx"
Gildy, funeral flowers are amazingly expensive. Just remember that you don't HAVE to have a wreath.
A bunch of flowers is all that's necessary.
Whatever you decide will be right.
I think as I am buying them from a local florists I have the price down to approx £60, that's a saving of £30 on the price the Funeral Director was able to offer and he suggested trying a local florist.
I chose my own florist as well. But I was advised to do it by the funeral director.
