| We treasure our loved ones and when they leave us in death -- either suddenly or after a long illness -- we feel
a deep loss and sense of emptiness. Rodman Neeper offers a unique and meaningful way to fill that void --
Thumbies® keepsakes that will be treasured now and for years to come.
Thumbies® are uniquely personal keepsakes, meticulously fashioned in precious metals from a fingerprint of
your loved one. For infants and young children whose fingerprints are very fine, the funeral director takes
prints of the entire foot or hand. |
Lifelines of a Grandmother |

Infant Footprint |
Artisans select the best portion of the best print, choosing the most interesting lifelines, arches, loops or
whorls from a high-definition scan. Then, from a three-dimensional wax model, it is cast in solid yellow or white
14K gold or sterling silver. After casting, your Thumbie® is put through an extensive polishing process to give it
a lustrous finish. Diamonds or synthetic birthstones may be added; and earrings, tie tacs, cuff links and key chains
can be created. |

| The final step in creating your heirloom is the engraving of the backside with a name and date. You may purchase
these thoughtful remembrances with matching 18" chains or as charms to be added to a special necklace or bracelet
of your own. Thumbies® make wonderful remembrances to give to family members and close friends on special occasions.
Since the scanned prints are saved electronically, additional units may be ordered at a later date. Thumbies®
are keepsakes to be treasured for generations. |
