Second Time Ordering

My nephew died recently of a fatal asthma attack. He was 29 years old. He served in the army after High School. And so to honor his memory I wanted to place a combat rosary inside his coffin next to his hands. I gave the combat prayer cards to my brother, his dad. My husband loved the idea of such a powerful rosary, I ordered him one for Father's Day.

Great Products!

I bought a WW1 rosary for my dad and a leather case. It was absolutely perfect! Well made and a great historical replica! It also came with some free goodies which made the rosary that much more special. I totally reccomend purchasing from Rugfed Rosaries!
