Flower Memorial Honoring the Life of Preston Ordone
In Loving Memory of Preston Ordone
With hearts full of sorrow and reverence, the community gathers to honor and celebrate the life of Preston Ordone, a soul who touched many with his warmth, light, and presence. In tribute to his memory, a special and heartfelt memorial has been created — a pair of overalls, crafted with care and love, now stand at Glory Church in Slidell, Louisiana, waiting to be filled with flowers from all who knew, loved, and were impacted by Preston.
This humble yet powerful tribute invites each of us to participate in a collective act of remembrance. You are welcome to stop by at any time, just as you are, and place a flower into the overalls — a symbol of love, remembrance, and community support. Whether you knew Preston closely or only through the stories shared by others, your flower will help honor the life he lived and the legacy he leaves behind.

This living memorial is more than a place of mourning — it is a space for healing, love, and community connection. It’s a chance for those grieving to come together, reflect, and contribute to a beautiful display of affection and gratitude for the time shared with Preston.
As we gather in this act of remembrance, let us not only mourn the loss of Preston Ordone but celebrate the light he brought to each of our lives. His presence continues to live on in the memories we carry and in the love that surrounds this heartfelt tribute.
Let us lift one another, flower by flower, in remembrance of a life that will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace, Preston. You are forever in our hearts.
