Cremation urns are made of many different types of materials, from bronze and copper to stainless steel to various species of hardwood. Many urns can be personalized, thereby offering a visual record of a life lived. In addition to names, birth dates, and death dates, a favorite activity, sport, or hobby, fraternal organization, or military emblem can also be engraved on the cremation urn.
The concept behind the keepsake is to allow each family member to have a small amount of the cremated remains to create a personal memorial.
