Markers & Monuments
Overview

More than a decoration...
Sacrifice, hardship, heritage, dedication, commitment, love and faith — the individual markers and monuments throughout the cemeteries are statements of faith crafted in granite or bronze.

Statements in Granite and Bronze
Because they are composed of a natural rock, no two granite grave memorials will ever be identical. A granite marker or monument can be as unique as your loved one. Granite is taken from quarries throughout the world. The expertly crafted product has a natural quality, even in its completed state.

Bronze grave memorials are composed of an alloy of copper and tin with traces of other metals sometimes added. Bronze is almost immune to decay. Each marker is unique, and is handcrafted by skilled artisans who work and turn the cast, hard metal into personalized tributes in bronze.
