Mission Statement
Our mission is to
help those who are missing a loved one through distance or death come to a
place of comfort and peace.
About Us
"Memories to Bear"
came out of a ministry to help a friend find comfort in being close to
something that belonged to a loved one who passed away. We wanted
something that would be soft and huggable and bring memories of the loved
one. What would comfort someone more than a Teddy Bear? This little "Love
Bear", made from garments that the person wore could be a comfort by being
a touchable, huggable reminder of the person who is away.
In death, flowers are a wonderful gift to the family but soon wither and
die, but our little bear will bring comfort for many years to come and
will bring good memories and a subtle feeling of the presence of the
person's spirit.
Physical distance is also a time of great stress. If a son or daughter is
a soldier or in college and is away from home a "hug" from one of our
camouflage bears or a bear made from a special garment may help until the
day he or she comes home.
Special birthdays or anniversaries are also fun to celebrate with the gift
of a bear made from baby clothes or some outfit that holds memories for
the person.
We invite you to give this experience to someone you care about. It will
be the best gift you can give a friend.
