Tracie continues, "Well, you remember there were not many volunteers. There were only four of us, and two of the ladies had to leave at noon. We discovered we were not going to have enough flowers, so your wife went to buy more. I stayed back to finish planting what we had."

Pastor Lott's wife could testify to the fact that when she got back with more flowers, that Ricky had arrived on his bicycle, and was ready to help with the rest of the planting.  Tracie had to stop for a moment, recalling the horrible event, "That's when it happened!"
