I have the pressed remains of a flower my mother wore when she married my dad some 94 years ago. It is in a bible that my father's aunt gave her sister in 1884, who then gave it to my dad in 1915. The bible was given to my oldest sister and eventually came into my possession.

As my father enlisted in the King's Own Regiment in 1915 I would say his aunt was hoping this bible would be of comfort to him.
