Flowers from all over the world sent to El Paso victim's funeral - WKMG News 6 & ClickOrlando

The El Paso man initially thought no one would show up for his wife's visitation service. His wife, Margie Reckard, 63, was killed when a gunman opened fire at a Walmart. The couple had no relatives in the area. Basco walked into the La Paz Faith Memorial and Spiritual Center to a storm of applause and a procession of people wanting to hug him. The building was at capacity with 400 mourners. Outside, another 700 waited in nearly 100-degree heat to pay respects, according to funeral organizers. "People were telling me they came from different faiths, different cities. It's just incredible how much love and support every single one of you has shown," Reckard's grandson, Tyler, said.   Margie 'always had a smile on her face'   Reckard's son, Dean, said he didn't spend as much time with his mother as he wanted. He told attendees he didn't remember much of his childhood because it was rough and that his mother lived a "hardknock life." "Through everything she dealt with in her life, she always had a smile on her face," he said. Unlike the man who killed his mother, Reckard said she was very accepting and open of all people. He said she looked at his three biracial children with nothing but "pure love."

Drew Barrymore's Bohemian Home Decor Collection for Walmart Screams Florida Airbnb, and I Love It - Jezebel

Drew Barrymore has launched a furniture and home goods line called Flower Home at Walmart with the goal of sharing her “bohemian” style with the general public at affordable prices. It’s a noble aim, but just how true to her personal taste are all 200+ items? Allow me, a human with zero traditional interior design training and a whole lot of opinions, to be the judge of that.Item one:Sea shells, the flowers of the sea! These are gaudy in a particularly Florida Airbnb kind of way (you know, the furniture that adorn every villa in Kissimmee, FL and the other small cities adjacent to Disney World?) That said, they’re kinda cute. $26 is pretty affordable, too, especially considering they weigh four pounds.Rating: 7/10Item two:AdvertisementI love these friendly looking birds (and once again, the color scheme suggest a strong Florida vacation vibe) but why is it $124? It’s a print in a nice frame, and it’s quite large, but for more than one hundred dollars? That’s, like, 31 rolls of white Christmas lights at Walmart, or 25 bags of Tyson-brand chicken nuggets. Not a deal.Ra... https://jezebel.com/drew-barrymores-bohemian-home-decor-collection-for-walm-1833742851
