Abstract
An aesthetically pleasing vault and urn system for use in a memorial service and/or interring the cremated remains of persons and/or pets. The vault and urn are weatherproof and tamperproof closures that prevent unauthorized access to the cremated remains. The urn can be used alone or in combination with the vault. The vault and urn are covered with materials capable of resisting deterioration for extended periods of time. In one embodiment, the vault simulates the appearance of a traditional gravestone mounted on a concrete or mounted side-by-side with a second simulated traditional gravestone for holding the remains of a husband and wife, a pet and its owner or close friends.
