My Conversation With Jay

Flower Delivery In Gainesville Ga.

A Conversation With Jay,

It’s Thursday, September 24th, 2009.

My shop is a fairy busy shop, we try hard to stay on our toes. Although, to me, (Bibbs) when someone calls, I answer. And when I answer I take the time to see that ALL your needs are met. Today I received a call from jay, Jay is in Aphganastan, he is there everyday away from his loved ones. We had a very nice conversation while he placed his order. Jay is a very grateful man and like all our guys that are away from home right now, fighting this war, his heart is at home, in Gainesville Georgia! I listened to his voice change several times while we spoke & when it came time for me to ask him how he wanted his card message to read (to his family)...his voice went silent, I kept that silence with him, as I knew why...several moments later he spoke the words for his card message. Basically he wanted his family to know how much he thinks of them, when the silence was evident for a second time, once again I sat at my desk with him, allowing him to have his moment. All I could see in my mind was a family apart, how I would see certain that his flowers were as beautiful as I could personally design them, how grand I would make them, how large a smile he would have to carry with him when he received a picture in his email of his family receiving these flowers. So much thought in such a short time that passed until he spoke again, and with a cracking voice he said to sign it……...“Love Daddy”

Flowers are a special part of all our lives, weather they are planted in our gardens, received from a loved one or we sent them to someone we wanted to know just how much we are thinking of them, or simply laid beside a place of resting.

I told Jay how grateful I felt that he chose me to take care of this for him. I really don't believe in accidents, although I do believe that when my phone rings, it is clearly for me! And now it becomes my responsibility to see it through, because, besides flowers, smiles matter too!
