Last month, he took over the East Rockaway Florist. He had just launched the new operation when he had to shut down. Since opening, Graham has been active in both communities, and each Valentine's Day he donates roses to MSSN so that the staff can give them to patients along with their meals.“That was my whole goal all along was to be a part of the community,” Graham said, “to help in any way that I can, and just give to the community. It's making people smile. It's making people happy, whatever I can do, I'll do it.”Graham said closing his shops has had a devastating financial impact, including having to be dormant for Easter and Passover, two holidays where he generates a lot of business. He added that he was worried that he may be closed for Mother's Day in May, which is usually a booming day for business.Graham noted that he has not laid anyone off, and that the staff is working to get through the global crisis as a team. He said he wishes his customers, community members and fellow business owners well, and expressed optimism that things will turn around eventually.“Everyone will get through this together,” he said, “and the positive in the end is we'll get back and support our local businesses.” ... https://www.liherald.com/stories/flowers-by-mike-in-oceanside-east-rockaway-donates-arrangements-to-seniors-hospitals-and,123706
