Today we celebrate the man behind Hillside Florist.
Most people see the finished arrangements, the beautiful weddings, and the flowers delivered with care. What they don’t always see are the early mornings, late nights, weekends, holidays, and countless hours spent making sure every customer is taken care of.
My dad has poured so much of his life into this business. He has never been afraid of hard work, and he has always believed that if something needs to be done, you simply show up and do it. Whether he’s building an arch, making a delivery, helping a family through a loss, or staying late to finish one more project, he gives his whole heart to it.
What makes me admire him even more is that he doesn’t just take care of this business—he takes care of his family. His children, his grandchildren, and everyone around him know they can count on him. He is the kind of person who quietly shows up, gives generously, and never asks for recognition.
Hillside Florist wouldn’t be what it is today without his dedication, sacrifice, and love. We are blessed to call him Dad, Grandpa, and the owner of Hillside Florist.
Happy Father’s Day. We love you, and we’re thankful for everything you do that so often goes unseen.
