I think this is a wonderful thing. When my husband passed away the funeral director made me leave the room while they put him on the gurney and it just deepend my sorrow that he was leaving under this large gray blanket. I had never heard of this before but I think it is a wonderful thing. I however would have like one to keep as a final memory of him. I can see that something as as simple as a gesture like this would be so meaningful to the family especially the remaining spouse or parent. I think I will call the funeral home that I used for my husband and ask about this. I would love to make something simple and peaceful to donate and have some family keep.
