I had never known that turning remains into beautiful stones was even an option until I read about it in an article from my Insurance Company. My husband passed away a year and a half ago and I have had his ashes in a box trying to figure out what to do with them. I think ashes are a bit creepy and “spreading” them somewhere just did not sit well with me. When I read about what Parting Stone does, I knew immediately that is what I wanted to do. I could have some stones with me and share some with close family and friends. Well, I could not be happier with not only the beautiful stones, but with the amazing customer service Parting Stone provided from the moment I submitted a request, until after I received the beautiful stones. Every question I had was answered in detail and with tremendous respect. I was blown away by the continual communication as to what “stage” of the process Craig’s ashes were in. They were even able to complete the process earlier than anticipated, allowing me to share some of his stones as Christmas gifts. Seeing the reaction of loved ones who received these beautiful stones was priceless as it is giving all of us a tangible, beautiful way to keep a small part of Craig with us always. Thank you to everyone at Parting Stone who made this “journey” so special. P.S. I shared how impressed I was with my Funeral Director, Tonya Dunmore at Click Funeral Home Farragut Chapel. She had never heard of the process and was so impressed (especially after seeing the beautiful, finished stones) that she is now sending clients your way. Thank you again! Ellen VandeLune
