Overview

A gravestone, or memorial as it is more commonly referred to in our trade, is a lasting tribute to a life now ended; an expression of love and respect for the life of a person. It is a source of satisfaction and comfort to those who are left behind to remember and will continue to act as a record of that life long after those who remember the person are themselves gone.

Choosing and designing a memorial presents you with a unique opportunity to create something that will express the personality and love of a person who was very special to you. It is therefore very important at this time to ensure you make the right decisions and to make those decisions requires an understanding of what goes into the making of a memorial and the options open to you.
