Why do we send flowers at funerals?

When someone has passed, sending flowers is a traditional way to express grief and condolences. Customs can vary from culture to culture, and knowing how to select and order the right arrangement can be daunting.

What Flowers Are Appropriate for a Funeral?
The type of flowers you choose will depend on who has passed and your connection with them:

Lilies are a traditional funeral flower and are always appropriate
Roses are common flowers for funerals and come in a variety of colors for every funeral style
Gladioli make wonderful standing fan sprays and are a traditional funeral flower
Carnations are fragrant, long-lasting, and perfect for a sympathy flower arrangement, especially for a mother who has passed.
Chrysanthemums are sent specifically for funerals in many cultures as well

Sending a potted plant to a grieving individual or family is a lovely gesture. Hydrangeas and orchids are ideal choices. The hydrangea can be planted outside at a later point in the grieving process, while orchids make an uplifting visual statement when a family is in mourning. Choosing funeral flowers with a particular meaning is a common expression of support.

How to Send Flowers to a Funeral?
Read the funeral announcement carefully. Many families list their preferences in the obituary or other public statement and include details about where to send flowers. As long as you have the name of the deceased, florists can find the location for you.

It's best to follow the family's wishes regarding donations in lieu of funeral flowers. In addition to a donation, cut flowers, baskets, or potted plants sent to the home can be uplifting. If you learn of the funeral months after it has taken place, sending flowers or a potted plant to the home is acceptable.

Next, you'll need to decide what type of arrangement and flowers you want to send. Flower baskets, bouquets in vases, wreaths, sprays, and potted plants are all possibilities. If you're unfamiliar with the culture or rituals of the family, we've prepared a guide on funeral customs by religion, ethnicity, and culture to assist you.





How to Order Flowers for a Funeral?
Flowers can be delivered to a memorial service, viewing, funeral service, graveside location, or the family's home. We have a wide variety of options available for the casket, service, and home of the grieving.

With heavy hearts, we announce the **Augie Meyers Obituary**

August “Augie” Meyers, legendary Texas accordionist, keyboardist, and pioneer of Tex-Mex rock, passed away, leaving behind a musical legacy that helped shape the sound of the American Southwest for more than six decades.

Born on May 31, 1940, in San Antonio, Texas, Augie Meyers developed a love for music at an early age. Influenced by conjunto, rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and traditional Mexican sounds, he created a distinctive style that blended cultures and genres into something uniquely Texan.

Meyers first rose to prominence in the 1960s as a founding member of the Sir Douglas Quintet, whose hit songs “She’s About a Mover” and “Mendocino” became international successes. His unmistakable Vox organ sound and energetic performances helped define the band’s identity and cement their place in rock history.

Later, Meyers became a founding member of the Texas Tornados, a supergroup that celebrated Tex-Mex music and culture. Alongside fellow legends, the band brought accordion-driven border music to mainstream audiences and won a Grammy Award for their vibrant, genre-blending sound.

Throughout his career, Meyers remained deeply proud of his Texas roots. His music captured the spirit of San Antonio and the cultural crossroads of the borderlands, inspiring generations of musicians and fans. Known affectionately as the “Godfather of Tex-Mex Music,” he recorded numerous solo albums and collaborated with artists across many styles.

Beyond the stage, Meyers was remembered for his warm personality, humor, and devotion to family and friends. His influence extended far beyond the accordion—he helped define an entire musical movement.

Augie Meyers’ legacy lives on in the timeless rhythms of Tex-Mex music, the musicians he inspired, and the countless fans who danced to his unmistakable sound. He will be remembered as one of Texas’ most influential musical pioneers.

He is survived by his family, friends, fellow musicians, and generations of fans who will forever celebrate the music he brought to life.
