Handwitten Notes to Personalize - "Jake", a Child's Name
A post shared by YURNS by MorzArt (@awesome.urns) on
20170131
I felt as though I was not their customer, but a close friend...Five-Star Review
FIVE-STAR REVIEW
"I scoured the internet looking for an urn that would represent my brother who passed away last year. When I saw the guitar Yurn by MorzArt I knew I'd found the one.
Jamaica and Rob were absolutely remarkable. They took one of the hardest things I'll have to do in life and made it so meaningful. From their interest of my wishes in the creation of the Yurn to their eagerness to work with me on payment, Jamaica and Rob showed much kindness and understanding and I felt as though I was not their customer, but a close friend.
When I received the finished Yurn it was 100% as unique as my brother.
Thank you for everything, Jamaica and Rob." - Lindsay E

Practicing Prototypes: Flying Heart
This Flying Heart YURN is a prototype model that we will be releasing
soon. In order to practice our techniques, we created this one for a
Facebook friend. She is experiencing the great loss of losing her
fiancee just prior to their marriage. Our thoughts are with her in the
coming days ahead.
Facebook Post |
I am overwhelmed with comfort and love. There are some who look down on virtual-only friendships. Tonight, though, I've proof to show how wrong they are. Friends I have never met IRL have given me an incredible gift. Jamaica and Rob of MorzArt sent an unexpected package. This gorgeous piece is a deep urn (or as they call it, a Yurn). It will hang on a wall as an urn, a memory box, or simply a beautiful reminder of Keith Johnson's life. I hope that none of you need funerary art for a very long time. But when you do, please look up these fantastic, compassionate artists.

The Power of Personalization: For a True Texas Cowboy
Zane Grey Cole of McDade, Texas
12/13/1929 – 9/1/2016
12/13/1929 – 9/1/2016
Zane is described as a cowboy’s cowboy…honest, hard-working, humble, and humorous. He was strong and kind…a horse trader, a storyteller, a gentleman, and a friend to everyone he met. He leaves behind a great legacy of love and family… and the values of integrity, heritage, and compassion for others.
In remembrance of this great man, we had the privilege of creating this custom Quarter Horse cremation urn sculpture. The Coles are family and we are so honored to memorialize Zane with our art. We hope that it provides them great comfort during this time, and becomes a treasure to the generations of Coles to come.

Engraved on the side of the horse's neck is a quote from Zane's writings:
"I will pass through this world only once, so I intend to ride a good horse."

The Power of Personalization: A YURN Surprise
We started listening to an entrepreneur podcast a few months ago and joined a related Facebook group. Nathan, the host, had shared a story on his podcast about his tough childhood experiences and the close bond he had with his little brother. Tragically, is brother died in 2012, at the age of 29, from alcoholism.
We understand the struggles having loved ones afflicted by alcoholism, and were touched by his story of profound loss. His positive take-away was very moving as he spoke about how he has grown from all of his challenges.
We were inspired to make him a memorial for his brother, and it was delivered to him in Colorado as a surprise....
How amazing that he shared this video and allowed us to experience the un-boxing with him. It was very touching and brought tears to our eyes too...
We designed a graphic for the inside of the YURN, it had this quote that Nathan described as his life's motto.

After Such A Loss...YURNS are Easier to Look at.
"I just want to tell you that I lost my youngest son... I have put off buying an urn because I was looking for something special. I knew exactly what I wanted and when I saw this urn I knew it was the reason why I waited. My son was an avid fisherman and this represents him perfectly. Thank you for making unique urns which also make it easier for a parent to look at after such a loss." - Myrna A.

Our First Print Ad
We did our first print ad in a local Bastrop County publication for
visitors and residents. Included with our ad was a very nice write-up
about YURNS. Additionally, Jamaica was a Contributing Graphic Designer,
creating a portion of the ads in the magazine. "The Guide to Bastrop County 2015-16":

After 10 Years, Dad Gets a New Home
Our friend purchased this Bass Angler YURN for her father. For many years, they weren't quite sure what to do with his cremains. Once she saw this YURN, she knew it was perfect for her dad. We are deeply touched that we were able to create his new memorial, and just love her mother's sweet reaction to receiving it.

Introducing "YURNS by MorzArt"
We are excited to launch our newest art endeavor YURNS by MorzArt. "Memorial Art for Unique Personalities" -- We are now in production of these 6 models, with new ideas on the way!
With the release of our YURNS cremation sculptures, we would like "service-to-others" to be foremost on our minds, intentions and actions.
The holidays often have us reflecting on the memories of loved ones, and the fond times we had with family and friends who have gone before us. We know this time of year can also be financially constraining for many, and that is why we have decided to offer all of our YURNS models on a "Pay What You Can Afford" basis for the holidays.
Order a YURN before or on January 1, 2015 with a donation amount that is within your means, and we will make for you the model of your choice.
We feel it is a great honor to handcraft each YURN we make, and hope that our service to you is the greatest final gift for your loved one.

Great Loss Leads to a Greater Purpose
A post to our Facebook friends:
Friends,
As many of you know, Rob’s mother passed away in March. The circumstances and financial situation did not allow for a traditional funeral service. We had a small gathering of family and his mother’s body was cremated. It was decided by the family that they wanted her cremains to be brought here to our property- along with her brother’s ashes (Uncle Jimmy passed away 5 years ago). About 10 days after her passing, a small white box containing her cremains was delivered by hand from our mailman...and today, we have two small white boxes sitting on top our refrigerator. Although the family had discussed us planting the ashes with new trees, we haven’t yet set the proper space or have had the readiness to do that.
Also as you may know, in a turn of events with our sawyer friend- we have been assisting in the development of his casket company. That exposure has us learning a lot about the death care industry. The funeral business is changing and they are taking note of the rising increase in the people doing cremation by choice or out of financial necessity. In some areas of the country, cremation rates are 70+% and people are opting for life celebration ceremonies over traditional funerals and their associated costs.
As a result, Rob has had many conversations with people interested in urns. In doing some research about urns, we discovered that there are many choices for funerary vessels, but not many that reach “outside of the box” per se…. spanning the financial spectrum, there are many beautiful clay, glass, metal or wooden urns and boxes out there- but that’s just it, the choice is a basically a vase or a box. It is difficult to find a very personalized urn…a figurative vessel that visually represents a person’s essence…something uniquely precious for their loved ones. This point brings to mind prior sculpture work we created as a special memorial.
In 2006, our buddy Ron passed away. At the time, we spoke with his wife Kathy about doing a sculptural urn for her. Ron had a big personality and he loved to fish… it was decided that she wanted a bigmouth bass fish for his cremains. Eight years later, that urn still sits mounted like a trophy on the wall of their home. Placed under a covered porch, it overlooks the beautiful country property they love so much. We know Ron would think it is a hoot that his remains ended up in that clay fish…he was just that kind of guy. Kathy recently shared with us how the fish urn still gives her comfort, being able to look up and know he is there with her.
So, where is all of this going- now that we have gone full circle? You guessed it…we want to do sculptural urns. Applied art with special function and sentiment, something that loved ones can always keep- to display in remembrance….a unique memorial that can have infinite possibilities to reflect the personality, hobbies or interests of the individual.
We now have better ideas for memorializing the cremains of Rob's mother and uncle, and will we'll be making special urn sculptures to represent them. Our intention is set with this idea… we get teary-eyed at the thought of such a beautiful purpose- we can't imagine a greater honor for our art, than to be of service to families in this way.
Do you have one of those small white boxes that you have been waiting to do something with? Do you have a friend that might be comforted by this service we can provide? Please contact us if you would like to share your thoughts or to create a special memorial for a loved one.
Abundant blessings,
Rob & Jamaica
