Rosary keepsake Urn

Abstract

The Rosary Keepsake Urn holds cremains, hair, or fur of any person living or dead, pet or animal. A rosary is attached to the cross. This consists of any length of any type of beads, chains, cords, wires, string or other material, considered a rosary. People of the Catholic faith feel connected to the rosary with their loved ones cremains, hair or fur inside. Some keep the rosary as a life long keepsake, while others hold the rosary during services or the brief grieving time prior to burial. They then bury or inter the rosary with the rest of the deceased cremains, as the Catholic religion requires. Some people put their deceased pet's cremains or fur in the cross, as a keepsake to their animal.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Crosses which hold cremains, and rosaries used for prayer have been sold separately. They have not been put together and sold as I have here, a Rosary Keepsake Urn.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION

I have combined the concepts of the rosary and crosses holding cremains, to make this total item, a Rosary Keepsake Urn which holds cremains, hair, crushed flowers or fur, as keepsake, in memory of a person, pet or animal. This is the main purpose of the Rosary Keepsake Urn.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

This product is now being offered to the public as a cremation keepsake, called a Rosary Keepsake Urn. A cross (FIG. 2) with a screw top opening, holds cremains, hair, or fur of any person living or dead, or any pet or animal. A rosary (FIG. 1) is attached to the cross. This consists of any length of any type of beads, chains, cords, wires, string or other material, considered a rosary.

People of the Catholic faith feel connected to the rosary with their loved ones cremains, hair or fur inside. Some keep the rosary as a life long keepsake, while others hold the rosary during services or the brief grieving time prior to burial. They then bury or inter the rosary with the rest of the deceased cremains, as the Catholic religion requires. Some people put their deceased pet's cremains or fur in the cross, as a keepsake to their animal.

The cremains, hair or fur can be added with the aid of a toothpick and a funnel (which is included) to the interior of the cross. The screw opening of the cross is then closed, adhesive, which is also included, is used to seal the opening at the screw. The top of the cross has an attached ring of metal, such as a jeweler's ring, which is attached to any length of any type of beads, chains, cords, wires, string or other material, which is considered a rosary.

The Rosary Keepsake Urn's main feature is the fact that the cross holds cremains, hair, crushed flowers or fur, as keepsake, in memory of a person, pet or animal. This is the main purpose of the Rosary Keepsake Urn.
