I like the way that the former owner of Cloud Florist which is located in Cleveland Ohio who decided to gather 8,000 palm leaves to be given to worshippers of the Christian faith this weekend.
Even though Phillip is allowing his son to run his flower shop after his retirement, he felt his duty to assist the worshippers a chance of celebrate Palm Sunday as a token of appreciation for being his clients.
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic that has in effect closed a lot of churches in Cleveland, the church services are being played online.
Even though the Coronavirus has affected sales at his store, the store remains open at this time most likely under the rules set by the government to limit how many customers can enter his store.
Even though Philip admitted that doing the hard work of gathering 8,000 palm trees, Phillip admitted that seeing his clients thank him for his act of compassion,, it was worth it.

I agree with you since gathering some many so many palm leaves did push him to the limit.

He was very generous and kind; but he exposed himself to many people.

I am sure he knew the risks involved doing this kind deed. I guess Phillip believes in Divine Intervention.

Even though this is a gneerous act, it can still be a reason for transmitting the virus.

You are correct since the virus is not something to fool around with.

I went to 2 churches yesterday in search of palm fronds for Palm Sunday. But the churches were closed and no sight of the palm fronds.
