Our Philosophy

skyline.gif (24194 bytes)

It is our wish that The Official Memorial Pin ® makes a moment in time stand still, as we are reminded of the preciousness of everyday life, our families and our friends.  May this reminder help us to be more grateful and kind, not only to the wearer of the Memorial Pin, and to each other, but to ourselves as well.

It is also our hope that the Memorial Pin will remind us of the fact that nothing ever ends... just as the silver band shines between the black enamel bands, so does love, memory and promise amidst even the darkest of times.

Total profits go the purchaser's charity of choice, or to vicitms' charities, which makes the purchase of this Pin a living Memorial to a loved one.  People's lives will be directly improved because you chose to purchase The Official Memorial Pin®

 

In Sympathy...

In Memory...

In Charity...

A Poem for Thought

Absence 

What shall I do with all the days and hours  That must be counted ere I see thy face? How shall I charm the interval  that lowers Between this time and that sweet time of grace?   

Shall I in slumber steep each weary sense, Weary with longing?  Shall I flee away   Into past days, and with some fond pretense Cheat myself to forget the present day?                  

Shall love for thee lay on my soul  the sin    Of casting from me God's great gift of time?   Shall I, these mists of memory locked within, Leave and forget life's purpose  sublime?              

O, how and by what means may I contrive,   To bring the hour that brings thee back more near    How   may I teach my drooping hope to live        Until that blessed time, and thou art here?             

I'll tell thee; for thy sake I will lay hold    Of all good aims, and consecrate to thee,       In worthy deeds, each moment that is told  While thou, beloved one! art far from me.               

For thee I will arouse my thoughts to try       All heavenward flights; all high and holy strains; For thy dear sake I will walk patiently   Through these long hours, nor call their  minutes pains.

I will this dreary blank of absence make    A noble task-time;  and will therein strive   To follow excellence, and to o'ertake       More good than I have  won since yet I live.             

So may this doomed time build up in me           A thousand graces, which shall thus be thine;  So may my love and longing hallowed be,   And thy dear thoughts an influence divine.             

Florence Ann Kemble
