Free flowers make people smile....under their masks! Enjoyed by the residents and staff at Inglis House, Hayes Manor, Simpson House, at a mini-mart, and a senior apartment building on Girard Avenue. 120 fall bouquets and little succulents in cute Halloween ceramic pots created joy for strangers today.

“Can I have one for my friend who has cancer?”
“I gave one to the Spanish lady at the store. She takes good care of me.”
“I am going to see my sister. I will give her these flowers.”
“ These flowers remind me of my wife. Her name was Gladys. I bought her flowers every Saturday.”
“My mother and father were in the same nursing home room together. She passed away in April. My father who is 88 has a roommate now. The man had a stroke and can’t talk so my father has nobody to have a conversation with. He loves gardening, music and reading. He will love the flowers.”
“I am new here. Do you bring these flowers every week?”
“It’s my daughter’s birthday. Now I have a gift for her!”
