Turn Treasured Memories into a Huggable Keepsake

Do you have a closet full of clothes from a loved one you've lost, or special outfits from a baby's first years, a graduation, a wedding or a cherished team uniform? We can turn those treasured fabrics into a beautiful, handmade memory bear.

These bears are more than just a stuffed animal; they are a huggable reminder of the special moments and people in your life. Each one is crafted with care, preserving the unique story within every stitch.

Give the gift of comfort and a tangible piece of the past. Call us to learn more about how we can create a one-of-a-kind keepsake just for you.
To order your bear today contact Deb at 250-919-2867 or Barb at 250-489-9418
Proceeds go to Cranbrook Kimberley Hospice Society

Grief can feel isolating and overwhelming, but a community of understanding can make all the difference. Our private bereavement support group is a safe, confidential space where you can share your story, listen to others, and connect with people who truly understand what you're going through. You are not alone on this journey.

Have you ever wondered who is behind some of Cranbrook's most beloved community spaces and initiatives? It's the Rotary Club of Cranbrook!
For over a century, this dedicated group of volunteers has been making our city a better place to live, work, and play. Their projects are a testament to their commitment:
🌳 Creating Community Spaces: You can see their work in places like Rotary Park, the Rotary Way trail system, and the improvements at Idlewild Park. They're also currently planning a trail network at Moir Park!
🏡 Building Stronger Communities: The Rotary Club of Cranbrook provides vital support to those in need. They manage the Rotary Scott Villa and partner with the Salvation Army to distribute grocery vouchers.
📚 Investing in the Future: They believe in the power of education, providing scholarships to deserving students at local schools and the College of the Rockies.
❤️ Supporting Local Causes: The club also gives back by donating to dozens of local organizations, including the EK Regional Hospital Foundation, Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, and Minor Hockey.
From building trails to funding essential programs, the Rotary Club of Cranbrook's impact is deep and meaningful. Thank you for everything you do!
