Instead of sending funeral flowers when I KNOW they're really not needed, I donate money to the leukemia cancer org. instead...You can donate ANY amount and they will send a letter to the bereaved family saying that money has been donated in their name...JneT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Thu, 9 May 2013 14:23:56 -0400 "Lisa Lepore" <[email protected]> writes: > I have 2 friends who have children with leukemia > If anyone is considering donating money for research, make sure you check out what the foundation actually spends on > research, or on the particular disease you are trying to help.

That is a wonderful idea . Sometimes there are just to many flowers. And a lot of money spent for only a few days of enjoyment.. This site sure has been quiet as I have not gotten any things for a couple of days. I guess we are all to busy. I know I keep busy and wonder where the day went. Happy Mothers day to all you wonderful people. I really enjoy hearing what you all are doing.

Yes, making a donation is a good thing instead of flowers. My point was to be sure to donate to an organization that is doing the most with its money.
