Matters of Life and Death
We recently had a family that purchased several pieces of urn jewelry as a memorial to honor the memory of their loved one. Nature themes were prominent, like the clover urn necklace.
and silver star urn necklace.
Carrie Marie Maurer
Age 29, of Conowingo, MD, died suddenly February 17, 2010 as a result of injuries sustained in an auto accident.
Born in Havre de Grace, MD on June 18, 1980, Carrie was the daughter of Kenneth and Janet Marie Maurer. She was a 1998 graduate of Rising Sun High School where she was a cheerleader for four years. Carrie was employed at AAA in Newark, DE where she was a roadside service assistant. Carrie loved children and was “Aunt Carrie” to many children. An avid Philadephia Eagles fan, Carrie’s greatest joy, however, was spending time with friends and family and will always be remembered for her generosity and loyalty. She will be dearly missed.
Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Carrie. RIP
Our solid brass keepsake urn features the popular “Sweetheart Rose” theme with engraved pink rose in a heart-shaped design.
We’ve recreated the ultimate symbol of love with our rose tear drop urn pendant. The keepsake urn necklace is sterling silver with a storage chamber inside the pendant that families can use to store a small loving memento.
Another increasingly popular choice in cremation jewelry is heart cremation rings. Similar to heart urn necklaces, these rings can hold a small amount of cremated ashes, lock of hair, funeral flower petals or another tiny memento. And because you wear the ring on your finger or on a chain around your neck, it provides lasting comfort of having your loved one close to your heart.
Heart cremation rings are common because they symbolize a person’s affection and love for another. It’s not uncommon for a spouse or parent to wear a cremation ring as a comforting reminder. Hearts also represent the unbreakable connection between loved ones.
Cremation rings come in a variety of materials including 14K gold, Sterling silver, gold plated, titanium, brass and pewter and are worn by both men and women. When not worn, heart cremation rings can be kept in a special glass dome or display as another way of honoring your loved one.
Our sweet Tender Heart sterling silver memorial ring is a keepsake cremation ring that holds a small memorial of your loved one. Finally, consider have the heart cremation ring engraved with your loved one’s name and birth and death dates. Cremation rings are very tasteful and discreet and provide a lifetime of comfort.
A patent has been issued for this device, which would conserve space in burial grounds. The inventor even envisions a transparent variety.
Makes no difference how efficient it is, or how much cost is avoided at the funeral home. Cremation remains an option.
Best wishes to the inventor; clearly some thought went into the idea.
