Obituary: Joseph Walter Fortenberry - Oak Ridge Today

Joe was born in Knoxville, Tennessee, and attended East Tennessee State University, where he studied mechanical engineering.

Valentine's Day flowers don't have to be so bad for the environment after all - San Francisco Chronicle

U.S. wedding costs almost $30,000. Nonprofits such as the Knoxville, Tennessee-based Random Acts of Flowers don't resell blooms but instead help facilitate these donations. Founded in 2008, the group works with hospitals and nursing homes to brighten patients' days with the leftover flowers, which come from weddings, funerals, and grocery store surplus. In the past 10 years, it's delivered more than 340,000 bouquets and repurposed more than 356,000 vases. April Churchill, founder of the Reflower Project in Boston, has a similar goal with her nonprofit, which she started in 2015. Florists, event planners, and wholesalers in the metropolitan area can contact her to pick up their surplus, which the Reflower Project then donates to nursing homes and women's shelters such as Rosie's Place. It's not only good for the environment but also patients' recovery. A 2009 study showed that those in hospital rooms decorated with flowers and potted plants needed less postoperative pain medication, had lower blood pressure and pulse rates, and were less anxious and tired than those without. "You can really see the difference with flowers and how much joy they can bring people," Churchill says. a href="https://blockads.fi...

Hannah & Matt | Boone Hall Plantation - charlestonweddingsmag.com

Hannah thought green and white was going to be her color combo for the wedding day, but after OD-ing on Pinterest, and talking with planner Natalie Knox of Boone Hall, they went with pops of color via the flowers and taper candles. The verdict? Classy and colorful! img class="size-full wp-image-96919" src="https://www.theweddingrow.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/2019-10-08_002...
