Pugh's Flowers and Pugh's Earthworks are sponsoring the Camp Good Grief 5K. Why the ties to the Baptist Camp Good Grief? Pugh's owners and brothers, Michael, Tim and Mark Pugh lost their father at an early age and they have a passion for helping others in the community deal with the unexpected loss of their loved ones. Camp Good Grief is a free bereavement camp for children in particular and it has made a difference in so many lives over the years. Learning to deal with grief can be difficult alone but with a community of support the process becomes a lot more bearable. So many tragedies happen and kids are not equipped to handle the recovery alone. Baptist's camp good grief, along with free counseling at the grief support center, make a world of difference, all free of charge! Sign up to participate in the family fun day, on October 4th, 2015.

National Grandparent’s Day, Pugh’s Flowers Memphis
The impetus for a National Grandparents Day originated with Marian McQuade, a housewife in Fayette County, West Virginia. Her primary motivation was to champion the cause of lonely elderly in nursing homes. She also hoped to persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage their grandparents could provide. President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed that National Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first Sunday after Labor Day. When is Grandparents Day? It is September 13th, 2015.

Lickety Split Couriers, a division of Pugh’s Flowers
Pugh's Flowers' customers began asking if they could have items other than flowers transported. Pugh's had everything in place to start a courier company, with drivers, vehicles, and dispatchers already lined up, Lickety Split Couriers was born! The heat in Memphis summers led to a fleet of climate controlled cargo vans. The vans are insulated and refrigerated and temps can be controlled, even in 100 degree heat. Lickety Split is only one of two climate controlled couriers in the state of Tennessee. Lickety Split can make deliveries to a large area of the mid-south. For prices and availability contact Bobby Fox at bobby@licketysplitcouriers.com or call 901-405-6684. You can also message Bobby via Linked In here. Lickety Split is truly the coolest courier in the Mid-South.
