Artist Wayne DeFrances offers portraits of the departed to depict a true remembrance of the deceased loved one, as well as theme paintings which will characterize the spirit of your loved one, their likes and personalities. You can also choose to have a favorite photograph reproduced or a scene that captures their personality. These works of art will bring a smile to anyone who views them. Our works of art become a true heirloom and remembrance piece for your home.
Any of the paintings will be elegantly reproduced on the highest quality canvas using only the very finest paints. We skillfully blend your loved one’s cremated ashes into this unique and highly personalized work of art. Your custom work of art is then sealed with a museum quality UV coating to last a life time. This new work of art will unite their very essence into a treasured heirloom to celebrate their life and memory forever.
By suspending cremated remains within solid glass globes and pendants, Memory Glass provides a unique method of memorializing your family, friends and pets.
Memory Glass can accompany any other cremation service, including urns, scatterings and burials. Using an extremely small amount of cremated remains, every member of the family can have their own tangible keepsake that will last forever.
Each Memory Glass and Memory Glass Pendant is stored, made and shipped, individually with the utmost care and respect, and our procedures and security measures ensure that your loved one is returned to you safely. At Grace Funeral & Cremation Services we have samples of the solid glass globes, touchstones and glass pendants on display. There are 16 color choices available.
