We lost our friend and next-door neighbor yesterday - Caroline. She was a charming lady, former schoolteacher and the best neighbor one could ask for. I make wall and desktop calendars each year from my photos and Caroline waited eagerly each year for the new one - she hung it in her den and would follow the seasons along with the month's image. This red rose is in her memory and I know she will be enjoying always blooming flowers from now on. All comments and critiques appreciated.

That's a beautifully sharp bicolored rose for dear Caroline. May she rest in peace and never worry about what day it is.

Gorgeous and outstanding Kathy!!!! I'm so sorry you had to lose your neighbor. We lost our good ones about 10 years ago and I still can't forget them. But we have some super cool new ones now that just moved in last fall and we're becoming fast friends! I hope you get a good one again too girl. A very beautiful remembrance for her!
