Book of remembrance
Memorial choices
Memorial cards and Miniature Books are personal keepsakes that you can look at whenever you wish. They contain a copy of your loved one’s memorial entry with hand-painted artwork and calligraphy by the same master calligraphers and artists of FG Marshall.
There is room for multiple entries in the miniature books, so you can transform it into a distinctive family chronicle that can be cherished and passed down through the generations.
Leather panels are hand-tooled with a gold inscription, with the name and dates of your loved one. Please note that leather panels may not always be available.
