Selection

Selecting Your Memorialist

When selecting a memorialist choose a reputable, long standing Monument company. A properly constructed monument will last for generations so you should be looking for a company that has proven itself over time and generations also. Whether it’s for maintenance, upkeep or the addition of a final date on a double monument you want to be assured the monument company will be there to assist your family in the future.

When choosing a memorialist ask questions to determine their experience and qualifications. Chose a memorialist you and your family feel confident with, or get referrals if you are not sure. Never purchase your memorial from a door to door salesman or a telephone solicitor as usually they are just that… sales people… and not true memorialists who have the interests of the family in mind. They are usually only interested in making a sale and not in commemorating your loved one in granite. It is usually a good idea to visit the place of business to determine the type of quality they produce and to ascertain their stability in the community.

Look for a local company that offer a large selection as well as quality material and craftsmanship. Remember, A monument is not only there to say John and Jane are buried here, But to say that they lived, loved and were loved. Throughout the ages, monuments have stood as the last and most enduring statement that marks the passing of a unique and special life. Monuments will always remain an endearing symbol of devotion and respect, a token of happy memories, and a lasting tribute to a distinctive life.
