Ashes to...bullets?

Holy Smoke is a company that offers a rather unique service: turning human ashes turned into live ammunition. That way, you can "take your loved one on one more hunt or one more round of clays."

It's understandable that the thought of turning the dearly departed into a deadly weapon may make you feel a little uncomfortable, but the folks at Holy Smoke want to reassure you:
None of the ash will have any effect on rifling, the propellant, or the firearm. All ash is placed in the shot cup or in the bullet for rifles and pistols. All shotshells and bullets will be sealed and boxed with reverance and care.
You can even make arrangements for yourself ahead of time. Sure, it may be a bit unorthodox, but you gotta love their reasoning: "Now, you can continue to protect your home and family even after you are gone." Can you think of a better gift to give your family?

(If bullets aren't to your liking, there are many other ways - from hour glasses to snow globes - to "honor" a loved one's memory.)
