Most glass urns are hand blown, giving them that extra level of attention and craftsmanship to make them an extra special unique way to honor your loved one. Many also allow you to have a small portion of your loved one’s cremated remains infused into the piece. If you'd like to know what's available in OH, send us a message and we can help.

When finding the perfect final resting place to scatter the remains of a loved one, it is important to do so respectfully. The process must abide by the rules of Rittman environmental agencies, and in some cases requires a scattering permit.

Continuing to find entertainment in music, film, or art that the deceased enjoyed is a great way to keep their memory alive. Work with friends and family members to gather the person’s favorite songs and create a playlist everyone can enjoy together, or see if you can sing them together.

How old is cremation? Archaeological records cite one of the oldest known cremations as the Mungo Lady, the approx. 20,000 year-old remains of a partly cremated body found near Australia’s Lake Mungo. This 1969 finding shows that cremation, as well as complex burial rituals, might have existed in early human societies.

Memorialization is an ongoing process that begins with memory. When remembering your loved one, ask yourself: what sports did you watch together, if any?

Regrief is generally used to describe a child's grief, but it can be used for adults as well. As you continue on your journey through life and experience "big moments" (weddings, graduations, etc.) without your loved one, you may experience "regrief." Even if it's years later, the special occasion can cause you to feel the same grief you felt at the time of your loss.
In these situations, take a moment to acknowledge your grief and reflect on the memories you were able to share with your loved one. Know that they will always be with you in your heart.

Yes, we return all remains. You choose if you want them returned in one or multiple urns. Often times families choose to split remains and take them to their separate homes.
