Memento
Token of remembrance
A memento is an object kept as a reminder of a person, place, or event: She kept the ticket stub as a memento of their first date.
Mementos are typically small and portable—photographs, jewelry, souvenirs—valued for their associations rather than their material worth.
The word comes from Latin for "remember."
