Talking with Aggie cousin the other day after the funeral of a mutual relative about Aggie ring options after death. (1) Interred with deceased in burial or cremains (2) Passed on to a designated survivor or heir (3) Donate to former students if possible (4) sell for gold value (5) Other? Of course it all depend on wishes of deceased if communicated before death.

I'd personally pass it on to a designated person if they really cared; otherwise with gold prices at an all time high I'd have it sold and the money given to the Former Students Association or a charity of my choice.

Elaborate scavenger hunt.

This is pretty much a good answer for anything.

Not when you're looking for somewhere to poop.

I know what I'm about

That's interesting. How does it slip on / off?

It has a clasp on the side with a safety chain on it.

One way to honor the wishes of the deceased is to keep the ring and write a check for the amount of the ring and leave it in the deceased's pocket. You can even add a few dollars to the amount for inflation.

What if they cashed the check?

Keep it away from Nervy. She's on a mission

Oh, this is about dead people and their rings. I thought that Ringy had died!! Whew!

We should give it to the government as they are great stewards of our money

This is my wife's Aggie bracelet. Chuck at 5th C jewelry in Bryan made this. Used her deceased moms gold to stretch and add to the back of her dads '61 ring.

Tons of compliments every time she wears it.

Wow, that's awesome. You mind me asking how much he charged you?

We supplied the extra gold, and the labor was about $2000 or so. It was probably 5 or 6 years ago, so I'm not sure. I thought it was high at the time, but I'm so happy we did that. We retired in Aggieland, and she wears it to every Aggie event we go to. That's 60 plus days a year.

I bet 5 people have had it done after seeing her bracelet. Our great friend was the first to have it done. Our friend helped designed it with Chuck. My wife's bracelet was the 20th one that Chuck at 5th C Jewelry completed.

I'm so glad we repurposed the ring that way. Beats the hell out of storing a ring in a drawer.

Yes, I was a salesman when I worked.

Maybe change your name to Ali Hakim?
