Paris is the most beautiful city I have ever visted. The French have built the most beautiful monuments to pay homage to their heroes. Museums and memorials cover the landscape in Paris paying tribute and honoring the memory of their leaders. Amazingly, their cemeteries are every bit as splendid as the rest of their city. One spectacular cemetery of Paris, Pere Lachaise, is absolutely stunning! Not just for the people who have been laid to rest there but for the amazing artwork that pays tribute to the lives they lived. It's as if you are strolling through an outdoor art gallery.

Where I grew up the cemeteries are large green fields full of inconspicious, flat headstones with an occasional bench or random statue. The columbarium niches are just full of the same repetitive
brass urns. You can track some of the designs back over 100 years.

Today, people want to have an urn that represents them and the life they lived, a physical reminder to their loved ones that will bring fond memories to mind. We should all be proud of the life we lived; shouldn't we be proud of our last resting place to?

It is my goal to change the way we memorialize our loved ones, one vessel at a time. You will never see a "Holberg" urn (Personal Temples) that could be mistaken for a "cremation urn"! Each will be a work of art designed to be the perfect reminder of the person it cradles.
