May 14, 1947, Menasha Record
It hadn't been that long since the war ended in 1945, so this timely ad showcases efforts to honor the service members who didn't make it home. To be honest, I did not know this could even be done back then, but it must have been with great reverence and honor that local florists and greenhouses took it upon themselves to offer this service in conjunction with the international arm of FTD. Yes, Memorial Day was weeks away, but planning ahead often takes time and this is such an occurrence.
