At Trinity United Methodist Church, friends of Eula Kirby gathered to remember her life. A charter member of the Sunbonnet Sue Quilt Club, Eula’s Celebration of Life was a reminder of all those things she loved. Eula was an organist and music filled the church, along with many of the beautiful quilts she made. The family brought in a huge number of plants from a local nursery. At the end of the service, those in attendance were ask to choose a plant to take home and put in their garden as a living reminder of Eula each year. It was a lovely tribute.�

Very nice tribute to Eula. I have seen the flowers carried away to plant before but only on rare occasions. Nice photograph and nice post.
What a FABULOUS idea – I love that idea – the reversal of the usual flowers that are sent to the grieving family, to remind them of their love done, by dying. I am going to remember that and maybe have occasion to use that idea.

What a lovely tribute to Eula. You will always be reminded of her when you see her plant.
I’m so glad you are back. Just happened to check your site today. I’ve missed your photos and your blogs. Good luck on any future surgeries.
I’m glad you’re on the mend! Which plant did you choose?
I just found your website. Your photos are beautiful. I went through a number of them trying to get a feel for what Sequim is like. I am considering relocating there in the future and will be checking your daily photo regularly.
