Jr.Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassA61G 017/00AbstractA method of memorializing a living being produces an inscribed image having a shaped surface. The method comprises cremating the expired remains of a living being to produce a resultant particulate ash product. A mixture of moldable materials is prepared and adapted for forming a molded object. At least a portion of the resultant particulate ash product is blended with the mixture of particulate moldable materials to produce a moldable product. The moldable product is then formed as an image having a shaped surface. The shaped image is processed to produce a rigid object consisting of permanently bonded particulate ash product and moldable materials. The shaped surface is then inscribed with indicia descriptive of the identity of the living being from which the resultant ash product has been obtained. In a specific embodiment, the living being is an animal such as a dog, a cat, a bird and the like.Field of SearchMISCELLANEOUS | |
