"We were at a loss at what to do with our son’s remains. Our funeral director suggested Parting Stones. He showed us and explained the process. We decided it was a good option for us. We also were able to offer stones to family and close friends so that they too could have a memento of our son. It is such a unique experience I love being able to touch a stone or carry one in my pocket. The company was wonderful in keeping us up to date with the process. They were right on schedule, took 2 months. We told everyone that our son was traveling to New Mexico, they thought that was funny! So very happy we chose Parting Stones, such a great way to honor a loved one!"
