Our Story
In 1999, the Gann Memorials toy line was developed to benefit charities around the country. Starting with a simple teddy bear concept, each design served as a memorial to it's represented charity. As the plush toy industry changed, so did our business.
Several years ago, Gann Memorials started to receive custom plush inquiries. As a result, our business made the transition into custom plush toys and puppets. We still haven't forgotten our roots, as we continue to support a variety of charitable organizations throughout the year.

Chris Gann's (Owner/President) Personal Mobile - 919-692-5559
I started Gann Memorials in 1999, and made the switch to custom plush development in 2005. I oversee all of the day to day company operations, and before any other staff member, make every effort to personally communicate with each new potential client.
Gene Gann's (Vice Pres. Sales) Personal Mobile - 336-609-1203
In 2010, I was proud to welcome my father into the company. As our VP of Sales, he brings us 30+ years of sales and customer service experience. His primary focus is sales team management, with an emphasis on international custom plush development through delivery.
Shelley Drexler's (Non-Profits/Electronic Plush) Personal Mobile - 770-318-9542
A past/present client, as well as owner of United Hearts of Hope (an Atlanta based charity) Shelley just joined us this year. Not only can she provide our potential clients with a "design to delivery" custom plush testimonial, but she is also our "go-to" associate most proficient at custom plush non-profit/charity toy developments.

Our Customers Say...
It took some searching, but I finally found the perfect cemetery with the right amount of magic to help me breath life into my little wicked zombies. I’d like to thank the delightfully ghoulish staff at Gann Memorials, and their team of doll designers, for their hard work (many times late into the night) while most mortals were sleeping.
