Page 202 - Chrysanthemums, lovely flowers so often used in many arrangements. They remind me so much of my Mum, they were her favourite flowers, though she never grew them in the garden. But every birthday and Christmas Dad would buy her a bouquet of "mums".

This is the last photo taken of Mum and Dad together, with my sister, before Dad died later in 1989. It was on their golden wedding anniversary.
