Monuments & memorials
Every kind of memorial
A memorial is separate from the cemetery plot. It is made and installed by a monumental mason. Here are the forms it takes, from a flush lawn plaque to a full monument or mausoleum crypt, and the services that keep an existing memorial sound.
Types of monuments
Headstone & base monuments
The upright stone that stands at the head of the grave.
Lawn monuments
A plaque or low monument on a lawn grave, the most common memorial today.
Ledger monuments
A full slab covering the grave, traditional and low-profile.
Full monuments
The complete memorial: headstone, base and covering over the grave.
Cemetery plaques
A cast bronze or engraved granite plaque, for lawn graves, niches and gardens.
