Daddy Doesn’t Become DiamondWed, April 11st 2007, 06:24 EST | |
| A German teenager’s demands to turn her father’s ashes into a synthetic diamond were halted in court on Tuesday after her grandmother protested against it. A district court in Weisbaden, Germany, ruled that the 19-year-old did not provide sufficient evidence that her father’s final wish was “to be pressed into a diamond.” She wanted to take his cremated remains to a company in Switzerland that would perform the procedure. The girl said her father told her he wanted to become a diamond, but his 86-year-old mother remembers different. She recalled her son saying, “I’ll be resting here soon as well,” when the two were in the cemetery in December. Judges ruled that without written instructions there was no proof of the expressed wishes of the deceased. Diamonds are a form of carbon, which is the main element in ash. When carbon is put under intense pressure and heat, it forms a diamond. Manufacturers have been replicating this natural-occurring event for years in the creation of synthetic diamonds. It was not made certain what the daughter planned to do with her diamond of a daddy.
