Peggy’s memorial service yesterday afternoon was quite special with a turnout of 20 or so old friends from her social club, church and school days, and remaining family.

If any of you want to add a bit of color and drama to the next funeral or memorial service in your own life, I can heartily recommend [How to Make a Rainbow Rose (with Pictures) - wikiHow](http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Rainbow-Rose) as a possibility. Peggy’s arrangement is across the room from me now and it’s amazing! It came in from Florida by express the other day in time for the service.

Thanks to each of you for the beautiful words in this thread and for the gifts and other expressions of sympathy and love for Peggy/Zoe.

Dave/Zeldar

NOTE: I mistakenly posted this in the Death Pool thread just now. Sorry for elevating Zoe to celebrity status! 🙂

My condolences.

As someone who lost a spouse recently I have some idea of what you are enduring. My deepest sympathies.
