Bronze Plaques For the Great Among Us
There shouldn’t be any absolutes in life. There may be status quos, and certain traditions we generally adhere to and these are good for most of us. But those special few believe themselves destined for greater futures than the ones laid out for most others. And they may bend the traditions and break from the [...]
Context and Bronze Plaques
People are the same everywhere. It’s only their context that changes. They like to be vigorous and studious at different times, they enjoy pleasure and being happy, they sympathize with their common man, more so depending on their shared context: religion, nationality, race. It’s interesting to see how differently context can affect people. Those who [...]
Live for the Present, and Cast Bronze Plaques
It’s hard to know what will happen in the future. The creation of a Palestinian state for example, could come to pass, or it could not. Time will tell based on those who think about the repercussions of their actions. Anything could happen. Today could be the last day of your life. You don’t know. [...]
Family, Rembrance and Cast Bronze Plaques
We all want to be remembered when we die. That’s part of why we have children in the first place, so something can exist after we are lying in the ground. Most of us die and will never be remembered in a hundred years. Usually actors, writers and politicians are the ones who are. Actors [...]
Modesty and Generosity and Cast Bronze Plaques
Cast bronze plaques should be tasteful. They should reflect the person they commemorate. If one gives a large sum, it’s appropriate to have larger cast bronze plaques. I once knew a Russian man who was very modest. He had accumulated great sums of money in the telecommunications game in the ’70s and had doubled it [...]
Cast Bronze Plaques for Big Star-Worthy Accomplishments
I often travel with my father on business trips. It’s something I’ve been lucky to do since I was much younger. One of the stops we made was Hollywood, California. Being the film geek I am, I requested we go see the Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard. These brass cast memorials (often confused as [...]
The Great Get Bronze Plaques
Throughout history bronze plaques have commemorated excellent individuals. Sometimes these plaques are more ornate, sometimes they are simple, bearing only a name, or sometimes they’re not plaques at all but are large statues. To have a plaque commemorate you means that you did something great in your life. Most people aspire to have a plaque. [...]
Engrave Donor Walls for School Wings or Libraries
You want to be remembered forever? Make a donation to a university somewhere so they can build a new wing on their campus. It’s a sure fire way to achieve immortality. Immortality in the sense that your name graces the halls forever. Donor walls in schools are always named after the greatest financial contributor. If [...]
Hope, Faith and Bronze Plaques
Hope is one of the most human emotions. It is closely linked to faith, although faith is stronger. Both of these virtues regard positive outcomes in the future. Dogs don’t think about the future the way we do–they may expect or hope for dinner, but they can’t hope that they don’t get a bad disease. [...]
The Symbol of the Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is a great way to commemorate people who have contributed to your cause. It isn’t as traditional as memorial plaques are and so is less stuffy and more approachable – basically, people won’t think that you have to be dead to be commemorated. The tree is a great symbol. Some say [...]
