“You don't get over it, you just get through it.

You don't get by it, because you can't get around it.

It doesn't 'get better'; it just gets different.

Everyday... Grief puts on a new face....” 

         ~Wendy Feireisen

We’d like to express our deepest sympathy for your loss.  Coping with bereavement and grief is an extremely personal and unique experience.  Each journey is different and people visit us at different points.  We hope having something physical to hold onto and wear will help bring you solace.  And as time passes, your smiles will outnumber your tears as your loved one’s spirit remains with you, always.

I have grieved for the loss of my pets, the death of my grandparents, and the way too soon death of a dear friend that valiantly battled cancer.  As I examine my own grief journey, I don’t think I’ve cleared all the “stages of grief”, nor have I grieved the same for each loss. Sisu Beads was inspired by those I have loved… and still love.  And in that love and respect, I found inspiration.  I wear my Sisu Beads and feel the strength and spirit of my loved ones.  And in that connection, I find peace and joy.   Although I do not have their bodies here, their spirit certainly is uncompromised and with me.  We continue life’s journey together.

We hope you too will find solace with Sisu Beads memorial jewelry.  Each bead is hand sculpted.  Your loved one’s cremation ashes will be hand mixed with the glaze and fired into the bead.  The artist will lovingly create your memorial jewelry with the ceramic cremation bead.  Each memory bead is made to honor your loved one.  Their spirit is cherished throughout the process. If you are comfortable in doing so, please send us a photo and tell us a little something about your loved one so we may think of them as we make their Sisu Bead.

If you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to call us. 619-961-5743

They say love beyond the world cannot be separated by it.

Death cannot kill what never dies.
