Memorial Plaques And Tribute Statues
When you pass a memorial and you see the elegant bronze statue in the center, representing some triumphant victory of a time long past, do you ever stop to read the memorial plaques? I’ve read a good number myself and I must say I am pleasantly amazed at the courage of the honored. Each story [...]
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 Plagues For Memorial Museums
Some of the most emotional memorial walls are the ones featured in museums. Both local and large scale historical societies and museums have at least one section devoted to a memorial. It is a way to educate and to remember. There is great honor in having these memorials made so they better be made right. [...]
School Additions Need Donor Walls
I had recently accompanied a college friend of mine to lunch. We picked our favorite spot on the campus as our meeting location. In the past few years so much has changed. The campus is currently undergoing renovation. They have signs up all over the main plaza with pictures of the new building designs. The [...]
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 [...]
A Permanent Wall Post
Social networking has allowed us all to post our feelings and ideas on each other’s “walls.” But rarely do these thoughts, whether they be a birthday greeting or a hot YouTube video, these things are mostly temporary. Sure the sentiment lasts, but who has time to scroll back through all those comments and sub-comments? Judaica [...]
Memorial Plaques, How We’re Remembered
Memories are strange and often unknowable things. Science at this point has very little understanding of our memory. It might seem obvious but they have even less information about how our emotional memories work. That said people go through great pains to define how exactly they will be remembered. It’s important to feel like your [...]
Special Engraved Invitations
How many times have you been asked, “Were you expecting a personally engraved invitation?” I have been asked this many times. Mostly by family members who started dinner without me or friends who hit up the latest Coen Brothers’ movie without dropping me even a telephoned or text messaged invite. This begs the question though, [...]
