Renae & her team create items that you imagine in your mind and when it's done it will touch your heart & soul. Shortly after starting this store she created a granite with all 4 generations of our W D Pearts. She made my husband cry when he stopped to "pick up something" I ordered. Such heartfelt gifts! They have fun gifts also. Anything you can dream up they can most likely do. Awesome & very friendly & helpful !

Renae at Humboldt Engraving is an amazing person. Goes beyond the extra mile to out special touches on every item, we have stones, a beautiful memory box and awesome very personalized flags. I have purchased multiple and now give the flags instead of flowers for funerals. Everyone I have given them to absolutely treasures this very special tribute to their loved one.
