Your Hand on My Shoulder

One-of-a-Kind Lake Huron Pebble Art Celebrating the Guidance of Someone Who Shaped Your Life

When we lose someone who helped guide us through life—a father, grandfather, mentor or someone who always seemed to know what to say—we can miss their physical presence terribly.

But what they taught us doesn't disappear.

Their values stay with us.

Their advice becomes part of the way we make decisions.

Their voice somehow still shows up when we need it most.

Your Hand on My Shoulder is about that feeling.

The person may no longer be physically beside us, but the guidance they gave us continues to shape who we are.

The stones are naturally shaped treasures from Lake Huron, paired with a beautiful, intricate piece of driftwood. Together, they create the feeling of a reassuring hand resting on a shoulder—a quiet reminder that the people who shape our lives can continue to walk with us, even when we can no longer walk beside them.

A Different Kind of Memorial

I've had many people ask me to create artwork about someone they've lost.

Sometimes they come looking for an angel or a traditional memorial piece.

But I often encourage people to think about something else:

What did that person give you that you still carry today?

Maybe it was wisdom.

Strength.

Faith.

A sense of humour.

A love of family.

Or simply the knowledge that someone believed in you.

Those things don't disappear.

They become part of you.

And sometimes, the most meaningful way to remember someone is to celebrate what they left behind in us.
