    When I inherited my grandfather's small bible I was at first disappointed that there was no 'writing' inside - no written family notes. But then I was thrilled to find he had several funeral cards tucked into different pages through out the book. A mini treasure chest for me.

    Theresa,
    These are definitely mini treasures! I never dreamed my mother would keep these but lucky for me she did! It isn't something you could ever find unless you were lucky enough to have a family member that kept funeral cards in their possession. It was a great find for sure!
    Aloha,
    Kelly
