I absolutely love this forever memorial for my baby Ruby. If they made an even bigger one, I would’ve purchased it. It is such high-quality and looks amazing in my yard. Thank you.
The marker for Charlie looks great! I expect to bring his ashes to the home where we met him over Memorial Day w/e, which feels fitting. The photo rendition really captures his personality and will keep his memory alive in our growing family.
My dog Bella was put down in a very non peaceful way and I can't get passed that. We have our pets in a garden in our yard and I purchased 2 headstones that were just very ordinary with a written message that did nothing for me. So I found this sight where I could write my own personal note to Bella apologizing for the way her life ended. This is the most beautiful personal headstone I've ever seen in my life and dealing with the company was so very personal. I'm still having a hard time but once the weather gets warmer we will add Bella to the garden and i feel she knows how sorry we are for her end of life. Exceptional and Beautifully made and hope it gives me some peace. Great company !
I bought this for my brother's dog Lola that passed away recently. He and I were very happy with the quality of the item, and I will be buying another one soon for one of my own dogs that passed away a few years ago.
The memorial plaque turned out great. The attention to detail is amazing. We’re very appreciative of the work you did for us. It’s a beautiful memorial of our beloved Heidi.
We bought a headstone for our first pup that passed and unfortunately we had to use them again for our next pup. We could not be more pleased with the job they did on capturing our Buster. Thank you..
I loved how you produced the memorial marker for Bandit. I especially enjoyed having a proof sent to me before the marker was created. Keep up the good work.
Losing our little fur son, Gus, is very hard. The memorial stones and other products you provide are beautiful and creative, and mostly help to get us through the pain our loss. Your service is outstanding! You made a special effort to change the font size on our memorial stone and also to ship it so we could lay it on Gus's grave in our garden before leaving on a two week trip. Our son found your business online after much searching and we are so happy with your product and response time. We can see you both care! Thank you, Patti, Darrell, and Stephen
After losing our dog suddenly and unexpectedly to ruptured spleen cancer, I searched Google for a place that makes personalized plaques. I found many options but furever memories caught my attention. I had to choose a high contrast photo due to the dark granite. I asked them to remove the date stamp, which they did. They also sent me a photo of what it would look like before it was made. I added her name and her birth year and death year. Looking back, I should have done her birthday and death day but it's still a beautiful piece. It's heavy, solid, and will hopefully last through the years being outside. Fast shipping, it was wrapped in bubble wrap and had lots of packing material to keep it from getting broken. I will definitely choose furever memories again in the future.
I love the memorial stone in honor of my furbaby they made the process very easy and was exactly what I was asking for will definitely order again when I am in need Thank you and your family for everything God Bless
We planted a tree when we lost our beloved dog Bodhi. This plaque is absolutely beautiful and is such a sweet reminder of our little guy. The customer service was amazing and they even helped by modifying our photo. It’s just perfect.
This plaque helped us grieve through the process of loving our beloved companion. Having this marks the spot where she now resides and we can always visit her and honor the gift she was in our lives. Thank you for this beautiful craftsmanship and loving sentiments.
This will forever be a cherished piece in our garden. Every time we walk by it reminds us of our precious Zoey. Thank you for the amazing craftsmanship and compassion you put.in to making this stone.
Our precious "Oso" had recently passed away from kidney failure when I came across the ad for My Furever Memories. After checking out their website and all the beautiful choices for a gravesite marker, my husband and I picked the bone shaped granite marker. Furever Memories team was in constant communication from the design proof through the shipping status. Upon receipt, I saw that the stone was safely packed in lots of protection and delivered to our door step. The stone is heavy and beautifully etched/carved. We are so happy with our choice and have recommended Furever Memories to our friends. We have a "doggy" memorial in our front garden at home and all that walk up to our front door pass by this garden. Everyone is touched by the loving stone marker we have dedicated to beloved Oso. Thank you so much Furever Memories for this beautiful stone in memory of our 7 year old Pomeranian Oso.
I'm happier then I thought i would be with the memorial plaque you & your family made for our little Roxy Girl 💞
You did a beautiful job .
It's only been three weeks that we lost our Sweet Girl , every time I look at her picture on the plaque it makes me tear up ...looks exactly like her .
Thank you so much for making this so special for us ❤️
When we lost our dog I searched the internet to find the perfect piece for my yard, and this was it! The customer service is outstanding and responsive to my questions. They sent the proof and it was amazing, they had removed the background of the chair. The turn around time was exceptional! Our hearts are broken but this beautiful piece of granite with MacKenzie’s picture and heartwarming saying with be with us always keeping her in our memory and hearts. Thank you for bringing joy at a time when our hearts were so broken.❤️
I had just lost my favorite dog and wanted to make sure to honor him properly with a nice plaque. I looked at several companies and came upon My Furever Memories - and I'm sure glad I did. I could never have imagined the personalized and professional services I would receive. The plaque is even better in person and just so lovely. And I was able to have personal contact with the owners who were so accommodating and helpful - also understanding the loss I was going through. I am just so thankful I chose this company!
Love our marker - the owners took the time to ensure the highest quality in the finished product. Cannot recommend the shop enough. We chose them knowing that the final product would stand the test of time outside.
Absolutely love our markers! So much care and attention to detail for an amazing finished product. Highly recommended this shop - we chose them, knowing it would be a product that would stand the test of time outside.
I am very happy with my memorial plaque. Vidal and Adda were very accommodating when asked about which photo would work. The result is a simple and beautiful way to memorialize our sweet, beloved family dog. It is a great reminder of our love for her that we will cherish forever.
I recently purchased a black marble outdoor plaque from My Furever Memories to honor the memory of my two beloved dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. This is actually the second plaque I’ve purchased from them; the first was for my first dog, and after my second dog passed, I decided to create a new plaque that included both of their names.
The craftsmanship is absolutely stunning. The plaque is beautifully made, and the engraving of the picture I provided, showing both of my dogs, is done with such precision and care. It’s clear that My Furever Memories took great pride in creating something special for me, and I’m truly grateful for that.
Thank you, My Furever Memories, for delivering such a wonderful product. This plaque is a beautiful tribute to my dogs, and it brings me comfort every time I see it. I highly recommend My Furever Memories to anyone looking for a meaningful and high-quality way to honor their loved ones.
Shipping took alot longer than expected, and I had to constantly ask for updates. But product was beautiful once finally received. It was gift, and they loved it as a thoughtful memory of their furkid.
Dealing with you was a delight. The product was perfect in all ways and fairly priced. Customer service was prompt and courteous. The recipient was delighted with the plaque.
