The traditional memorial most families picture: a granite headstone that stands upright above the ground, large enough to carry a family name, a verse, and the details that tell a life's story.
An upright monument is the most enduring and visible way to mark a resting place. Set on a granite base, it rises above the lawn so a family name can be read from a distance and the lettering stays clear of snow and grass for generations.
Every upright we make is custom. You choose the granite color, the shape and size, the lettering, and any carving or etching, and we proof every detail with you before a single line is cut. Whether you need a single name or a companion stone for two, the design is built around your loved one.
A monument for one name, sized and shaped to suit the cemetery and your wishes. A timeless choice with room for a name, dates, and a few words that matter.
A wider monument made for two, often for spouses. We can engrave both names now, or leave one side open and add the second inscription later, matched to the first.
Hand-carved roses, religious symbols, and scenes, or laser-etched portraits and landscapes. We help you choose artwork that reflects who they were, then proof it with you.
From classic gray and black to rose, mahogany, and blue, in serp-top, oval, heart, and custom silhouettes. We match an existing family stone when you ask us to.

Yes. We regularly match the granite color, shape, and lettering of a companion or family stone already in place. Bring us a photo and the cemetery details and we will make sure the new memorial belongs right alongside it.
From your first visit to setting the stone, most monuments take roughly 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the design, granite availability, and the cemetery's foundation schedule. We give you a realistic timeline at your consultation.
Of course. Many companion monuments are engraved on one side first, with the second inscription added in place years later. We keep your design on file so the lettering matches exactly.
When you're ready, our family is here to help yours, with patience, care, and no obligation.
