1. Deer Inlay Wood Art Urn
We'll begin our best-of list with the very best. Our entire line of Wood Inlay Art Cremation Urns is worth a look - for nearly twenty years, these incredibly beautiful urns have been top choices for everyone, and especially for dads.
Made in the USA from solid wood, each urn is available in several different wood types to suit your tastes. Designs include everything from bears to cowboys to lighthouses and much more.
The scene is built in layers, inlays crafted from different pieces of wood in their natural colors. Each piece is laser etched for detail, then layered into the urn to create a dynamic yet soothingly peaceful scene.
The Deer Wood Cremation Urn is just one of dozens of designs. This one is ideal for the dad who loved the outdoors, whether hunting or hiking or simply enjoying the beauty of God's creation.
2. Freedom Military Service Urn
Did your father serve his country well in the armed forces? If he was proud of his service in the Air Force, Army, Navy, or Marine Corps, then go with our Freedom Wood Military Cremation Urn.
This urn is crafted in the USA from solid wood, in your choice of Oak (as pictured above), Walnut, Cherry, or Rosewood. Includes medallion for the specific military branch, and optionally you can add surface engraving of name and dates below the medallion.
With authentic American-made craftsmanship, this memorial truly honors a father who dedicated his life to his country.

3. Bicycle Cremation Urn
This one is a supremely popular urn for anyone who loved cycling - dads especially! If your papa bear was passionate about riding, we think you'll agree that the Bicycle Road Home Wood Cremation Urn
is the one you want. It's available with your choice of handlebars (curved for road riding, straight for off-road) and we can also customize it with a personalized inscription on top.
4. Blue Hand-Blown Glass Cremation Urn
Our hand-blown glass urns are made in Oregon, crafted individually and to order. This Blue Glass Cremation Urn is a handsome and artistic way to honor a beautiful soul.
5. Gone Fishing Memorial Plaque Urn
Our signature line of Memorial Plaque Urns are just the thing when you don't want to be too obvious about displaying the ashes. Designed to look like a memorial wall decor piece (which they certainly are!), these plaques are unique because they also hold the full amount of cremated remains between the front and back panels.
If your dad loved to fish, you know he'd appreciate the Gone Fishing Wall Mounted Wood Plaque Urn. Personalization is included, and you can choose from one of nine types of fish.
6. Custom Engraved Photo Wood Urn
With Dad's photo engraved onto a gorgeous Maple wood cremation urn, you'll lock in your favorite memory of him forever. The Maple Wood Cremation Urn with Laser Engraved Photo Memorial is a wonderful (and very popular) choice to honor your loved one's memory.
7. Classic Marble Cremation Urn
Camouflage is bold yet earthy and understated at the same time. For some Dads, the Classic Cultured Marble Urn in Camo will be just right. Maybe he was into hiking, hunting, preservation, or birding. Perhaps he was in the military, or worked as a park ranger.
Even if he wasn't into camo, marble is still a solid choice (if you'll forgive the pun). So check out the many additional colors available in our Stone Urns collection. Stone looks especially beautiful when engraved with an inscription.
8. Laser Carved Train Cremation Urn
Beautiful cherry wood. Bold etching of a locomotive. Made in the USA. Premium quality. The Laser Carved Train Cremation Urn is the perfect memorial for a guy who was into trains.
A ferroequinologist, if you will. (Yeah, we didn't know what it meant either.)
9. Raku Fired Ceramic Urn
Handcrafted and fired right here in the Pacific Northwest, this Raku Ceramic Urn is a modern - yet seemingly ancient - work of art.
10. Soaring Eagle Cremation Urn
Soaring Eagles have long been a symbol for independence and high-flying adventure. Plus, with this gorgeous wood inlay art scene of mountains, trees, and the majestic bird of prey, the Soaring Eagle Wood Inlay Cremation Urn is the perfect urn for the dad who loved nature and the Great Outdoors.
