In full bloom: Hutchison family celebrates 50 years at Fisher's Florist

Day. On Mother's Day, he doubles his staff to meet the demand.Fisher's Florist delivers to Shippensburg and the surrounding areas, and down to Chambersburg.He stressed that Fisher's will never give its customers a “cookie cutter bouquet,” and always strives to have the freshest flowers on hand. He orders from three wholesalers that can essentially have most flowers to him every day of the week, except Sundays. Tropical flowers need to be ordered in advance because they can take a few days to arrive. When Hurricane Irma hit Florida at the beginning of the month, it was tough for him to get red roses in because a lot of flowers are shipped to Miami and sent via refrigerated truck to wholesalers.How does Tim know which flowers to order and how many?“When I took over the business, that was the first thing I was really worried about,” he admitted. “But, it's just something you pick up after doing it for so long. I try to keep red, pink, orange and lavender roses in stock, along with daisies and carnations. I keep close tabs on funerals and if I see that a few are coming up, I will buy more. I also keep records from year to year and note what sold, what didn't sell and go from there. If Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday, I won't sell as many flowers, so I will order less. It's a matter of planning ahead.”Tim noted that Fisher's Florist also sells silk arrangements, green potted plants and gift items like Keystone Candles, which are made in Harrisburg.Getting creativeStacy and Angie Biesecker arranged bouquets of colorful flowers for customers last week. Stacy finished up her arrangement filled with bright yellow daisies, vibrant purple carnations and elegant white roses.Both agreed they enjoy working with... (The Shippensburg News-Chronicle)

BOYS BASKETBALL: Yardley's Tom Ryan touched players lives wherever he coached

Warriors – led by Asa Rankins and current coach Matt Gasper – earned a high seed in states. And yet they still had to drive175 miles to Chambersburg High School to take on the Cadets while the Scotland School was just six miles north off I-81.Tied at the half at 25-all, Bristol actually took a 42-40 lead after three quarters only to see Scotland pull away in the final frame. Continued... At the end of the 2006-07 school year, Bristol saw the graduation of five seniors on the basketball team including Gasper, Mike and Matt Pinelli and Rocco Pirollo. That didn’t stop Ryan; he led the Warriors back to the postseason in 2008.Ryan’s health was starting to fail more significantly, however, that year. He had heart disease, longue disease and Diabetes, which cost him his leg, amputated shortly after the basketball season.After 2008, the Warriors never returned to districts, going a combined 15-30 those two campaigns. Kevin says however it was those last two years from which Ryan gained the most satisfaction.“He still wanted to win, but he started to see that there were things that were more important than winning,” said Kevin.“He really started to mellow out those last couple of years. That’s when he started to invest in kids’ lives.”Kids like Gasper, who took the reins of the Bristol boys basketball program at the beginning of this season.The current coach didn’t register a winning record his first year with the Warriors but he managed to get his charges into the BAL tournament where Bristol got past DelCo Christian – a team it lost to twice this season – in the opener by a 66-64 score.In the quarterfinals, the Warriors got a big fourth quarter from standout Deonte Harris and toppled Church Farm School, 55-47, despite losing to the Griffins three days earlier in the last game of the regular season.You know Church Farm fans didn’t like it; their Griffins lost to Bristol in last year’s D-1 championship, despite possessing a 15-point lead with less than five minutes to go in regulation.Now, Ryan can rest in peace, knowing that one of his protégés got the most out of his team, something the former Warriors coach had always managed. Continued... YARDLEY – Former CYO and high school boys basketball coach Tom Ryan, of Yardley, passed away on Good Friday and when he did, Bucks County lost one of the good ones.Due to some health issues, Ryan, who was 69, hadn’t coached a hoops team since 2010. But before that, he guided junior varsity and varsity squads at no less than five lower Bucks County high schools including Bishop Egan, Holy Ghost Prep, Pennsbury, Truman and Bristol High School.A retired systems analyst for PECO Energy, Ryan’s last coaching tour of duty was at Bristol where he led the Warriors to a 68-53 record over the course of five seasons, three of which the team made it into district playoffs.Ryan’s first year at Bristol was 2005-06 when he led the Warriors to an 18-6 record and a loss to Saint Pius X in district playoffs. His second year there was even better when he took Bristol t... (Bucks Local News)
