Every flight they take up many mementos for the family and teammates on the ground. Pins, patches, flags, etc.
We have several such items at home. All have flown on the shuttle and ISS.

It adds an additional touch of sorrow to see what might have meant to be little presents and mementos among the wreckage.

I am just no good at posting links but I read one article which said that the Israeli astronaut carried with him drawing rendered by a 14 year old boy who perished in the Holocaust...it was called "MOONSCAPE".
I will see if I can find the URL for the article, at least.
