A statue has a front, a back, a head end above and a foot end below. A
central section is between the head and foot ends. A recess is formed
into the statue adjacent to the central section. A container is
positioned in the recess and is adapted to receive mortal remains of a
cremated being. The container has a front face. A stopper is positionable
in an aperture of the container. A cover is secured in the recess and
seals the recess with the container therein.
