Wesley's tulip


14 years ago today, I lost my brother Wes, at age 51. 
 Every March about this time, this tulip, that I planted from his funeral comes up.
 I see it out my kitchen window and think about him.

    I am so sorry for your loss - we have an azalea we planted from Jerry's dad's funeral and, like your tulip, it's a sweet reminder. blessings, marlene

    Oh I'm so sorry you lost him so young. And the meaning that is wrapped up in the tulip is so very bittersweet.
