People used to place them on their door to let others know that they are grieving
. Now of course, things have changed with all of our technology. If you have lost someone that will be in the paper and everyone can read it or perhaps you will post it on Facebook or another social website. We have many ways of letting people know when we have lost a loved one. Families today still use the this floral arrangement as a way to show our sorrow or support. Your local florist or funeral home can provide you with help in the selection if you so desire.
