Types of Monuments Available to Choose

There are five main types of memorial options we provide grave markers, monuments, benches, cremation urns, and caskets.

Grave markers lie flat on the ground and are often compared to gravestones or monuments which rise above the ground. They are more subtle in appearance which may be preferable.

We have a variety of grave markers available in bronze, marble, and many others. Each is unique with different features such as a placeholder for flowers, photos, and engravings.

Statues and monuments rise above the ground making the grave more noticeable. We also offer these in granite and marble with different shapes and sizes with unique features.

If those don’t seem right for you, then a bench might be what you’re looking for. These commemorative markers give you a place to sit in peace and serenity at your memorial for a loved one.

Our benches have flower place holders, engravings, angels, and others.

Another option for when cremation services have already taken place is a cremation urn. Urns hold the ashes as a way to decorate your loved one without a burial site.

We have an extensive selection for you to choose from, varieties in color, picture, shapes, and material are available as well.

Caskets are large containers that hold your loved one at their burial site. We have a selection of 18 or 20 gauge caskets as well as wooden caskets.  An 18-gauge casket is thicker metal than the 20-gauge casket, which allows for more intricate designs.

A Few Tips to Remember When Buying Memorials

Be sure to check with your location of the memorial, it’s possible they have restrictions or requirements for the type of memorials allowed.

Also, inquire with the location about installation services and special offers. Even if you’ve worked with a different location before, not all of them are going to offer the same things, and some may have options you weren’t aware of previously.

Lastly, consider all of your options before you make a selection.
