Although it's not really what I would want for myself, I can see the appeal.
As for the creepy factor, I don't think it's any different than keeping the unprocessed ashes on the mantle. Either way, you're keeping the remains around the house, but this way it's something beautiful.
Hopefully, it will help some people to remember their loved ones in a happier way. A diamond is associated with a lot of happy times in ones life, not usually death. Maybe this will serve as not only a memorial, but a way of easing the pain.
