Fresh flowers, friendly faces

Rotary Rose Sale distribution day fills community with bouquets of joy

One gesture of kindness — one surprise bouquet of flowers, one simple rose — can change a person's whole day. When 1,412 dozen roses go out into the community, that's a whole lot of brightened days. “That’s what flowers do, right? They bring sunshine to any room,” Rotary Club of Coeur d'Alene Evening member Judy Tebow said Friday morning. "It doesn’t matter who you are. Unless you’re allergic to flowers, everybody loves flowers. It brings a little light, sunshine and happiness."
