Happy Sweetest Day

Happy Sweetest Day!

Dear friends,

October 17 is Sweetest Day and I have a special gift for you
to use to create a very special gift to the Rose in your Life.

Sweetest Day was actually started by a group of confectioners
in Cleveland, OH in 1921. Herbert Birch Kingston, who worked for
a candy company wanted to bring some joy into the lives of the
underprivileged such as orphans, shut-ins, the lonely elderly,
hospitalized people and many of the “forgotten others.”

He gathered together his candy-making friends and hatched
the plan to give boxes of candy to these people.

On this first Sweetest Day, they distributed 20,000 boxes of candy.

Since then, it has grown into a holiday to show love and appreciation
to those we love

For you, I created a special gift to show my love and appreciation
for being a person who has come into my life through Roses on the Windshield.
