Hi Becky,
I want to wish you and Tom congratulations!
Amy Robson contacted me about making a cross for you and Tom. After showing her the designs I have made so far she told me she thought it best if you decided on the design idea you like best.
So this page: LiturgicalFurniture has all the designs I've made
including a smaller version of the Lois Jungkuntz Memorial Cross
I also started work on a new design based on a variation of a Wedding Chest that I made for my son Spencer and his bride Rebekah.
The Theme here is "Two shall become One" I took some of the elements in the design and started adapting them to a cross design.
This is a second rendering of the idea.
I moved on to a third idea where I went back to a couple previous cross designs and implemented some of their elements into this. This design is based on the "Good Shepherd Cross" used in the liturgical furnishings for Christ the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Canton. I also incorporated some of the elements from the memorial Cross I made for your mother- including the the Holy Spirit Dove element and the background Circle.
I think you know that I try to incorporate various scriptural and "spiritual" references in these cross designs. I try to make them apparent but not too blatant-so that they can speak to people in ways that are maybe different than I intend. If you like any version on this page or one of the designs on the main Liturgical page -let me know. I can usually make a similar though not always exact replica of previous designs.
Here is a new link to a revised design based on Becky's e-mail on 5/11/2017.
