Charlotte, North Carolina, florist Ashley Manning started a tradition last Valentine's Day of delivering flower arrangements to those who are widowed. She reached out to her Instagram followers to send her names and addresses of widows so she could add them to her list, and ended up delivering 121 arrangements, nearly 100 more than her original goal of 25. Her project grew tremendously this year with the help of 150 volunteers ahead of Valentine's Day yesterday.
