A Life’s Work, Honoring Lives

Hi I'm Vern. After 30 + years in woodworking, I chose to focus my work on memorial pieces. Creating urns allows me to slow down, work with intention, and use my God given woodworking skills to build something that honors a life deeply loved.

After searching for the perfect Urn for my son, I found Vernon on facebook marketplace. What he made was exactly what I needed to honor him. He also made one for my daughter as we are sharing my sons ashes.

My moms cat passed away and was looking for an Urn for her when I found Verns. Vern was so easy to deal with it made us comfortable in going ahead with one of his Urns. It was so beautiful. When my cat passed a couple months later it was an easy decision to go back to him for another Urn. We are so greatful.
