John and his father

Some fathers and sons build cars, some play sports, and some do woodworking, but John Lowndes and his father, Ian, enjoyed having a good cup of tea together. After being deceased for 10 years, John decided to honor his father by eternally incorporating him into his daily ritual by turning him into a teapot. Yep, that’s right, a teapot.

John, 54, said: “Those cups of tea with dad were special and when he died I really missed them.”

John went to a local potter and asked him to mix his father’s ashes into the clay for a teapot. The potter complied and created two pots for him, just in case one of them broke. Now the two get to have tea together once again. That’s sweet and pretty creepy at the same time.
