Well first off we'd need some kind of donating system, maybe one of the mods could set one up and admin it? and we'll put the money received to some flowers or donate the money to a chosen charity.
Anyone heard of this website? https://www.wepay.com/ or maybe paypal would be better? I think the best way would be for us to send money to someones paypal and then they ring up a flower shop nearby and pay over the phone.
I didn't know Joe, I only read a few posts of his, but that was enough to respect him. Not even necessarily for their content, but simply the eloquent and witty way in which they were written.
His family and friends won't have much use for my thoughts, but they might take comfort in knowing he was respected by complete strangers, so particularly his parents must have done something quite right
Useless or not, for tradition's sake, my thoughts go out to them.
Don't know about "local", but Fleurop (link goes straight to Sympathy/Funeral selection) do world wide same day delivery
I only just saw this thread, what a terrible shame, and at such a young age too. He was one of the smarter guys around here and his posts were always worthwhile and thoughtful, I never met him but he was one of my favourite contributors to the forum.
