Memorial Products and Custom Designs

Markers

These lower-profile memorials are permitted in varying sizes and heights by most cemeteries. The use of each style needs to fit the contour of the ground, other memorials on the lot and your personal taste. While space is somewhat limited, each marker may be personalized to commemorate the individual or individuals.

Headstones

The design for the headstone may be Contemporary, Classic or Modern. The architecturally trained designer brings deep individuality and dignity to memorials of this type.

Colonial Tablets

Simplicity is their hallmark.

Colonial Tablets can be carved with highly symbolic designs from colonial America, or rely on solely on exquisite lettering. While usually monolithic, they can be used with a low base.

Monuments

No type of memorial lends itself to variety of shapes and ornament as the tablet monument. These photographs are examples of two piece horizontal Monuments. Similar in contour, there is great variety in design, which is admirable.

Sculpture

Our skilled artists can create many types of reliefs and sculptures to express your respect. From hand chiseled marble to cast bronze, sculpture provides a unique and personal way to expresses your sentiments beautifully.

Crosses

The Cross, as a memorial, is impressive in any size. The variations possible in Cross forms are endless. In the hands of the trained designer, the Cross becomes a perfect memorial type.

Ledgers

In earlier times, ledgers were used primarily to cover subterranean tombs. Today they are more widely used for individual graves. Good taste always tends to simplicity in the design of the ledger, although this form is well adapted to classic carvings and elegant design. Family history and personal accomplishments are often included as part of the inscription.

Classic or Modern in style, the mausoleum provides the most permanent form of sepulture.
