It all began with a little girl named Mamie Katherine Adams who was stillborn in 2009. Mamie’s is now in more than 105 hospitals in 25 states and gifted more than 1800 plates in 2023.
Our mission at Mamie’s Poppy Plates is to bring comfort and support to families all over The United States who have suffered the loss of a baby or child. We want to help preserve the precious reminders of these beautiful lives through our plates and help parents and family find healing in their grief. All of us who have endured this tragic loss know the value and significance of our baby’s hand and footprints, whether they are in Heaven or on Earth. Our plates are the perfect keepsake for parents who sadly are unable to take their baby home from the hospital.
