Keepsakes That are Imprinted

“You may be gone from my sight. But you are never gone from my heart” ~ Winnie the Pooh. 

When a loved one leaves this world, they remain with us in so many ways. Their presence becomes imprinted in our thoughts. Adolf Funeral Home provides families with a unique option to memorialize their loved ones.

Fingerprints are synonymous with individuality. Ridges of the skin form loops, whorls, and arches. They curve, swirl, and spiral around the pads of the finger in unique patterns. No two people have been found to have the same fingerprints. They remain consistent and do not change over time and have been used since the late nineteenth century to identify individuals.

Capturing the fingerprint of your loved one is a unique way to memorialize those that are no longer with us. The pad of the finger is transferred onto a gold or silver metal charm. This keepsake comes in a variety of styles available for both women and men. 


Glass Remembrance Items

Burial is not always the preferred option for your loved ones. For many reasons, people may choose to have the remains cremated in more traditional ways. Clients who want this method have an alternate way to memorialize their loved ones.

Glass Remembrance items use a portion of the cremated remains to work into a unique, handcrafted glass memento. These original pieces of art use a technique of glass-forming that involves inflating molten glass into a bubble. The glassblower manipulates the bubble to form a variety of shapes and designs. Less than a teaspoon of ash is infused with the glass to create a beautiful one-of-a-kind tribute.
