Monday, May 29 is Memorial Day, an annual remembrance has been observed since the years following the Civil War.

At Mission Viejo Florist, we join our friends and neighbors in remembering, as well as in reaching out to the families who are still mourning the loss of a spouse, sibling, child, or parent.
