Just wanted to give a shout out to Pete at Forget Me Not.
I recently went in to forget me not after suddenly and tragically losing my brother in an accident. I wanted to get an artificial wreath made for a memorial. Pete listened very sympathetically to the story and what it was I was looking for. Nothing was too much and he did everything he could to make sure it was ready in time. The end result was exactly what I wanted. Something simple but nice.
We also received the most beautiful bouquets from people who went there. The flowers lasted amazingly and far longer than I expected.
Thank you Pete your compassion and business is an absolute asset to the community.

Thank you so much to the lovely man who stopped to help me after my dog was hit by a car on Saleyards Lane today, think his name was James. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness towards Ruby getting her off the road & for driving us to the vets. To the poor people that stopped after Ruby ran out in front of your car I'm so sorry, thank you for your compassion & concern. Ruby is doing ok for now.
