Crafting Legacies
There was much thought put into this family memorial, especially since their son, a young man, had recently passed away unexpectedly. With a handwritten poem, family photos, a sketch of the son when he was younger and beautiful clouds in the sky… this memorial came to life! You can see the love that went into making this memorial. Here you can see some of the process below.
On the front of the memorial, doves rise through clouds across the surface, followed by etchings of different photos from his life. Every element was chosen by the people who knew and loved him most, his family.
On the back of his memorial is a laser etching of his face when he was younger, and the poem that meant so much.
Vermont Granite Works helped the family make their son's memory everlasting.
Turning Your Ideas into a Custom Granite Memorial
