Italian Urn
To honor our mother’s wish for an Italian-made urn to reflect her Southern Italian family ancestry, my brother and I began searching for an urn she would like. We contacted Italian churches and cathedrals and urn suppliers across the United States. None carried urns made in Italy. At the same time, we contacted funeral homes and marble carvers across Italy. Surprisingly, again nothing. Finally, we were happy and relieved to see Memorials.com website come up during our internet search. Hoping we would find something we thought Mom would like, we looked at all the Italian-made urns on the website. Debbie and Sheila were courteous, understanding, patient and helpful as we continued to ask questions about the urns, the Italian artist and location of her studio. We could not have asked for anything more from either Debbie or Sheila. They always had time for our phone calls and emails. Ralf, Debbie and Sheila: Thank you for helping us during such a difficult time. We honored Mom’s wish to have an Italian urn. Finding the urn in Naples adds to the comfort. Mom’s and Dad’s families are from Paterno Calabro, Calabria; making Naples a most appropriate location from which to find an urn. Our sincere thanks to Ms. Lubrano for a perfectly beautiful urn. Mom would love it; beautifully simple and unassuming. I like to think the painted design resembles the painted decorations on a Roman temple entablature. Con affetto,
