Many of us, pass by Roy's Florist on our way to and
from the temple. So it was a shock to hear about this
weekend's fire at 710 Notre Dame Ave. We know the
building from its landmark neon sign and the
Japanese-Canadian mural on the side of the building.
But, we also know the shop as the place where the
Kaita family has worked for and supported members of
our community for many years.

Roy's Florist has
provided flowers the Manitoba Buddhist Temple since
the store opened in 1962. The flowers you see on the
hondo are often donated
from Roy's. They also supply bouquets for
funerals, weddings and other special occasions.
We hope the Kaita family can recover from this
terrible incident. Customers who want to reach
current owners, Michael and Kathy Kaita can email
rfltd@mts.net.
