A while back we asked for subscriptions for the hanging flower baskets with a suggestion of giving them in thanksgiving for our families and specifically for our mothers, considering that Mother's Day is approaching.Well, the baskets have arrived and are hanging now, so you'll have to wait until next year to "memorialize" your mother and/or family in this beautiful way.
As our good mothers no doubt pointed out often, there's a life lesson in all this: don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today.
This year's flower baskets are given in loving memory of and thanksgiving for
- Barbara Jeanne Yoakum, a great mother and grandmother, friend to all who knew her, and a founding and faithful member of Saint Luke's Church, and the
- Rev. Kenneth Vincent Schwartz II, founding member, loving husband, father grandfather and great-grandfather and Deacon Emeritus of the parish.
Rest eternal grant unto them, O Lord.
And may light perpetual shine upon them. Amen
