This article is devoted to Memorial Tattoo Ideas for men & women, which are mostly used when people lose someone very important in their lives. They opt for a tattoo which will be memorial and will show their love and respect towards their loved one, a family member or even a pet. If you think that memorial tattoo designs symbolize death or loss you are completely wrong. People try to have such a design that may symbolize life, that is, life goes on for their loved one too. It is also used to honor the one they respected or the one that gave his life for them, like fallen soldiers.

There is a variety of ways to get a memorial tattoo design. The elements that are common for these tattoos are angel bodies, angel wings, religious themes and saints. People, who don’t want to get the whole body image of an angel, prefer to have just wings, halos or heavenly elements. You can also include some quotes or the name of the person who passed away. But those who don’t want to add the real name choose a nickname, birth or death dates. There are also cases when they want to have the whole portrait to honor that important person.
