Abstract
A cremation urn comprises a base section which forms therein a memorabilia chamber sized to contain objects of memorabilia. A drawer is horizontally slidable in the memorabilia chamber and includes an end wall for closing the memorabilia chamber and concealing it from view. An upper tongue of the base section forms a male connector which is received in a female connector of a receptacle section. The latter forms a remains chamber sized to receive the cremated remains of a deceased, the remains chamber being open at its bottom. Threaded fasteners extend upwardly through the base section and into the receptacle section to secure those sections together.
