He's not even your co-worker, his daughter is. So why would anyone be talking about or need to know about the cost? This is starting to look like you're trying to make a big show for your own benefit rather than supporting her thru her grief & finding a way to honor her dad.
Because she is asking for gift ideas and it is helpful to know her price budget...

When my co teacher lost her dad, our team chipped in and bought her a Pandora bracelet. The charms were a Letter R (dad’s initial), a football, and a heart.

That's really cool. Do you have any pictures of them? Day after hubby passed, a friend's mom gave me a dragonfly she made out of glass.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

I didn't post a picture of the 4th side with their personal information for obvious reasons but that side has name and dates on it.

Those are amazing. Understand about not posting the personal info on one side. Still those are beautiful.

Thank you. Out of everything I make those make me the saddest. I have one I need to finish the card for and get mailed out early next week and I've had to make the entire thing through blurry vision. I would love to see your dragonfly. I'll bet it's beautiful.

That would make me sad too. Here is my dragonfly. Sorry it's upside down. I couldn't figure out to how upload the picture via phone.
