Similarly, what are your thoughts about doing something like this? Do I have the rings converted to a necklace with my mom's birthstone embedded, or should the stone be my daughter's favorite "bauble", a ruby, gem, or diamond?

Thanks in advance for your ideas, and any referrals to a custom jeweler.

I suggest you visit Gold in Art on 466 in Lady Lake. They do beautiful work. I suggest you select your daughter's birth stone to be in the center. That way she is included in the family jewelry.
