I received the secured package delivery and both my hisband and I were overwhelmed with joy as to the detail, precise and beautiful workmanship of the Sand Pail Infant Urn. My six day old daughter’s tiny foot prints (she was born at 26 weeks) were beautifully done on the lid. Thank you so very much. Chris from Memento Memorials was awesome and his communication via email as well as on the telephone was sincere, empathetic and made the process a bit easier. Thank you very much! Sincerely, Jessica’s mom

My entire life changed on Sept 6, 2012, when my precious baby girl, Isabella Marie, was born “sleeping” at 35 weeks gestation. I never imagined my 3rd daughter would be stillborn. I was unable to make a lot of decisions at that time but the one thing I did know was that I had to have her with me always…therefore, cremation was my choice for her. An urn was the next decision. I couldn’t find anything I liked. Nothing I saw felt right for my precious baby girl. I eventually had to settle on an urn. I continued to look for another urn because in my heart, I knew when the right urn was found, I would know. I would feel It and she would finally have her “home”. It took a little over 2 years and I came across Memento Memorials on Facebook and my mouth dropped. I knew I had found Isabella’s home and out of the goodness of Mr. Harvan’s heart, he was donating 15 infant urns to bereaved parents/families. My baby girl was chosen to receive one of those urns. I sent Mr. Harvan Isabella’s information, as well as, a picture of her tiny footprints. Then I waited in anticipation. I knew it would be beautiful from the pictures I saw on his Facebook page and website. The day came, her urn arrived and when I opened the package, I was in complete shock. I was overcome with emotion…I was looking at the most beautiful piece of work I had ever seen. His work is absolutely amazing and I could feel and see the love that went into making my daughter’s final resting place. I knew in my heart this was what I had been waiting for…as I carefully cradled her tiny bag of ashes in my hand, I kissed her one last time and put her in her new home. As a mother, my heart was finally at peace. My precious Isabella Marie was finally home. I can’t thank Mr. Harvan enough. He gave me the greatet gift and I will be forever grateful to him.

My precious twins, Allyson and Brooklyn, were born sleeping May 24, 2009 we never had the urn for them. Recently we were able to get the Sand Pail urn and I am blown away by how simple and elegant and beautiful it is. I cannot think Chris enough for the hard work and dedication he put into this one of a kind piece of art for my girls. We were able to get the urn through donations made and without them my girls would still be without their final resting place. I cannot think Chris and the donors enough. Every detail of the sand pail is perfect. And having both of their tiny feet prints on the top just blows me away. It really is hard to put into words just how beautiful it is. It isn’t fair for anyone to have to shop for an urn for their child but even through the initial process of talking with Chris about what we wanted to have put on it, he made that easy as well. Thank you for everything you do and have done for me and my girls.
