Her gesture could be a reference to memory of an event; a relative, friend or loved one; or a significant point in a relationship. It can be a ‘miss-you’ piece – a symbol for when someone is absent, or given as a gift when you want someone to remember you. It can be a reminder of someone who has passed away, but still very present. This is a very personal piece in that it could represent an emotional time that is known or shared by just the giver and the receiver.


I am a single mom, who has to work full time outside of the home. Last year I enrolled my daughter in a fine arts program, quite a distance away. Two dear friends got my child to and from the program every single Tuesday for the year! It meant so much to me. I have to be self-reliant and handle parenting alone, all of the time. It was a gift that they took on this responsibility for me. I love them for it and will never forget how they so willingly stepped forward to help - they're my carpool angels. I got them both a Remember figurine as a symbol of my gratitude.
