The Legacy Urn Company uses a unique process to create our wood and epoxy urns. Each urn is handcrafted and made from natural wood. Due to the natural variations in the wood, it is possible that the epoxy may not line up perfectly on one side of the urn. This is not a defect but rather a natural characteristic of the materials used. We strive to create the highest quality urns, and we believe that the slight variation in our wood and epoxy urns adds to their beauty and uniqueness. If you have any concerns or questions about your urn, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Choosing what to write on a personalized urn plaque is a deeply personal decision, and it should reflect the sentiments and memories you want to honor. Here are some suggestions that might help you decide: Name and Dates: Typically, an urn plaque includes the name of the deceased and their birth and passing dates. For example, "In Loving Memory of John Smith, 1950 - 2023." A Short Quote or Scripture: Consider including a short quote, scripture, or religious verse that was meaningful to the person or to your relationship with them. It could be something like, "Forever in Our Hearts," "Rest in Peace," or a passage from a religious text. Personal Tribute: Write a personalized tribute or message that encapsulates the essence of the person's life. Share a few words about their personality, passions, or the impact they had on your life. Special Nickname: If the person had a special nickname that was dear to them or those close to them, you might include it on the plaque. Prayers or Blessings: If applicable, you can add a prayer or blessing that is meaningful to you or your loved one. A Line from a Song or Poem: If the person had a favorite song or poem, you could include a line from it. Shared Memories: Share a brief memory or anecdote about the person that captures their spirit. Cultural or Religious Elements: If the person had strong cultural or religious affiliations, consider including symbols or phrases that are relevant to their beliefs. Simple and Elegant: Sometimes, less is more. A simple plaque with just the person's name, dates, and "In Loving Memory" can be a beautiful and understated choice. Ultimately, the goal is to create a plaque that brings comfort and solace to you and others who will see it. Take your time to think about what best represents your feelings and the memory of your loved one. You can also consult with other family members or close friends to gather their input and ideas.
