I know its a bit silly considering I never had the pleasure of meeting her in person but I miss Blossom. I really do! I still see her old posts once in awhile or an old correspondence we had & well I miss her. I sure hope her husband is well & think of her land & new house in my mind often. I feel the spring time approaching & imagine how beautiful her home will be. I look forward to all of our flowers blossoming this spring in our own gardens in her memory. We still miss you sweetie! Hurry up springtime ;0)

Me, too. I just mentioned Blossom on another thread. Springtime makes me think of her. We miss you Blossom! I still have my Blossomy wreath!!

Isn't this funny. I was just talking about her the other night. I think it is amazing how people we will never meet can touch us so deeply across time and space.

It must be in the air! Last week I was working in the flower beds and she was on my mind too! I miss her a lot!

OMG, I was thinking of her last night and today, the 1 year anniversary of her death is near. I was wondering if the Rose of Sharon plant I sent Philip had survived. How I miss that wonderful lady. It brings tears to my eyes just thinking of this dear, special, wonderful person.

I miss her so much, I've kept her last 3 pm's to me, the last being 3/15/05, 5:16pm. OK, I'm not going to cry, cause I know she's in that special place.

Hugs Philip, I know how much I/we miss her, your heart must have a huge hole in it. I hope you, Philip are healing, just know if you're peeking in, we miss her so.

I've been missing her as well. This whole past week I've had her on my mind.

Whatz up, me too! I was trimming her wheeping cherry blossom tree with all the other trees about a month ago and talking to her.

Then my neice died and everyone is sending flowers as I plan on planting a tree.

Look at the time, does anyone know how her husband is coping and if he built that house?

Gosh, has it already been a year? Blossom was such a special person and it's apparent how many hearts she touched.

I was just thinking about Blossom too... has anybody kept in touch with her husband? She really was such a bright and lovely person... definitely missed.

Marie (New Hope) was the one from LBT who was in touch with Philip. I wonder if she keeps up, and is willing to pass along an update?

Wow I didn't realize this but I am a member of GW and the garden club that Blossom was in. I didn't know that she posted on here also as I just joined at the end of last year. I will check and see if any of the garden club folks have been in touch lately. M

I so gald to see I wasn't alone in this. I am also amazed at how we are all thinking about her at the same time. BoyI wished I kept Philips IM. Do you think if we could find her old memeber status we could email him & let him know our prayers are with his family???

OK - well I answered my own ??'s & found her old memeber icon & sent him a IM w/the link to this thread. Hopefully it will be recieved & he can see that she is not forgotten but still very much missed.

One of the garden club members just posted a message to my query about Blossom's husband. He thanks everybody for keeping her in their thoughts. The garden club dedicated a mini memorial in the rose garden at LISDOLA with a rose she had propogated. One of the garden club members made a copper tripod for it. It is by the bench just off the parking area. Anybody is welcome to go there. I realize most people don't live close enough but thought you might like to know. M

I still have her picture here on my computer and was just thinking about her this week as well. She was such a joy to know and is still sorely missed.

Can you post it? I would love to see it!

You can see what a wonderful person Blossom was that she has touched so many of us here and everywhere she went.

Its hard to believe a year has passed she her physical being has left us...But she is really not gone.

Say me a warm seat My friend...Memories may be all we have but they are as powerful as a physical presence when we want them to be.

I don't want to sound freaky, but I have her last 3 pm's to me and go back and read them from time to time. She always made me feel like I was her best friend. The last date was March 6th, so the date is very close.

I would love to know how Philip is doing and how the house is coming along. It would be great if he'd stop by and touch base with us.

When I started re reading everyone's post I got teary eyed and goosie bumps, like Greg said, she was so loved.

Speaking of her picture, I wish there was some way Alex could "freeze" her Avatar and dedicate it to her so no one else could use it. I would be sooooo upset if someone started using it. (***long sigh***).
