grinding ashes from cremated animal remains;
mixing the ashes with water and at least one binder in a predetermined ratio to produce a mixture;
pouring the mixture into a mould;
vibrating the mould to minimize bubbles;
drying the mixture while in the mould to produce the solid stone;
after the mixture is dried, creating and applying a slurry to fill surface deviations on the stone;
further drying the slurry once applied to the stone; and
sanding the dried stone to smooth a surface of the stone.
