Memorial Keepsakes & Tokens

Many people appreciate having a token of remembrance of the loved one who has died. These might include small trees to be planted with a special saying, a photograph of the person who has died, or a special engraved coin or charm. Each token will be as unique as the individual. Tokens can be anything that helps to remember the person who has died. I also work with glass and pottery artists who design commissioned pieces of art - which can be comprised of and/or contain ashes. Additionally, you might wish to visit www.funeria.com for other ideas and contacts.

Token ideas:

  • tree seedlings - along with a note asking that it be planted in memory of the person who has died.
  • Tulip or other flower bulbs in tulle bags with a note
  • A CD of the celebrant's favorite music
  • A twig of Rosemary can be given as a symbol of remembrance
  • Photos of the celebrant
  • Wildflower seeds - with a message printed on the package - see resources for companies that offer this
