Modern cremation can point to Italy in the late 1800s as its starting point, and with its rise in North America in 1913 the demand for cremation urns rose with the desire to keep loved ones close. That same sentiment remains now as it did 100 years ago, with the urn achieving the same dignity as a headstone. Send us a message here if you want to know what options we have available.

Have you heard of the "last-year test?" If this year were your last, what would you do differently? " The purpose of this test - meditation on death - is to help us reflect on our lives, teaching us how to live each moment mindfully.
