Urn Garden is one of the few companies that offers engraving on the cloisonne urns. Even the double size cloisonne urns can be personalized. Engraving adds a couple of extra days to the transit time, depending on the work load. To ensure accuracy, we email a proof for final approval before production begins.
After waiting a month and half for the Italian dolphin sculpture urns to arrive, not counting the European vacation we can finally begin to fill the back orders.
Thank you for your patience.

So I finally got to see “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford”. Loved it! Some might find it slow or dull, but the acting and cinematography is great. Brad portrayed Jesse James as the sociopath that he was, and Casey Afflek’s interpretation of Robert Ford is compelling.
Jesse was a cash cow not only for Robert Ford, but the whole state. Missouri is the cave state and so there are lots of hi-dee holes for the James gang.
Jesse’s mother, Zerelda, who lost a hand to firebomb during a Pinkerton raid, allowed tourists to view the grave of her son for 25 cents. She sold rocks from his grave and legend has it that when the rock supply ran low, she simply restocked from the river. She also gave paid tours of the farm shortly after Jesse’s death, a practice that was continued by Frank in later years.
As we do in this part of the country, Jesse married his first cousin, Zee after a nine-year courtship. They had two children, Jesse Edwards and Mary.
Zee James suffered from a deep depression after her husband’s death, became reclusive and continued to wear her widow’s weeds long after Jesse’s assassination. Zee died in 1900.
The fragile beauty of the snowdrop flower pushes through the harsh elements to reveal the promise of brighter days and rebirth.
Snowdrop is one of the first bulbs to bloom in the early Spring. Usually they’ll appear January thru April and can form impressive carpets of white blossoms. Snowdrops spread, but are not invasive, so that if you come back to the same spot year after year you may feel lifted at the sight of their patient, modest increase. A gardener friend tells me there are many places around the country where they have established themselves for more than a hundred years.

Snowdrops and Carnations are both considered winter flowers and might be two ideas to consider for a January memorial service , grave side or memorial garden planting.
JP’s post on the Twitter tool, blew me out of the water and totally validated my thoughts on using the application for my business. Over the past year I’ve watched the My Space come and go, Facebook is hot, and now Twitter. Meanwhile, I’m still clunking away trying to understand the blog concept.
And frankly folks, nobody wants to read about death and dying every word of every post, and Blawg knows, I can’t bear to write about it. Jet Packs’ laid it on the line:
And here’s where marketers fail: They don’t see the revenue stream. And here’s what they don’t want to hear: There is no revenue stream. Corporate blogs failed for the same reason. No one wants to write a company blog (and even fewer want to read it) that amounts to nothing more than spider food, especially when you have the comments feature disabled.
The blog has worked as spider food, and I’ll continue plunking away, trying to blend the life that I currently live: fitness in the morning, funeral in the afternoon.
My prediction that Amy Winehouse would be dead by the end of the year didn’t play out. Word is that wino has hired a trainer and joined the Virgin Active Gym in London. Work it girl.
Recently the Muslim Council of India sent an important message to the world’s Muslims. It asked one of the country’s largest Muslim graveyards, Marine Lines Bada Qabrastan, where unclaimed bodies are often interred, to deny burial rites to the nine men who died after terrorizing Mumbai. Refusal to bury the terrorists in a Muslim cemetery signifies not just that terrorist attacks are un-Islamic, a contention often heard, but that their perpetrators become, by carrying out these acts, non-Muslim. “They cannot be Muslims or followers of Islam,” declared Muslim Council President Ibrahim Tai, “so they cannot have a final resting place anywhere on sacred Mother India.”
The question then arises, what should India do with the dead bodies?
Cremating the dead and scattering the ashes in international waters, as Israel did after executing Adolf Eichmann in 1962, is the best option. Because Islamic law opposes cremation for Muslims, who believe in the physical resurrection of the body, incineration alone would signify a non-Muslim way of disposing of the dead.
