Today your family will be making a decision on a memorial to honor the memory of someone loved and respected. This is a very personal choice, and why so many families select a granite memorial. Granite is a fitting tribute that will endure for generations to come.
A life not forgotten
When we lose someone dear to us, we try to find ways to keep that person alive in our hearts. That is why memories become so precious and a grave site memorial so important. Once the service is completed and the casket at rest, a granite memorial becomes the only symbol of a life not forgotten.
Granite lasts forever....
Granite is among the world's most beautiful and prestigious natural stones. For hundreds of years, artisans have chosen granite for impressive public memorials and religious works of art. Craftsmen have always known that granite is one of the earth's hardest minerals. It has a durability rating of 7, close to a diamond's rating of 10. Marble, although beautiful, is relatively soft with a rating of only 3. Over time, marble will deteriorate, while granite lasts forever.
....And becomes more beautiful over time
Because granite is one of the earth's most durable natural materials, it withstands the elements, unlike marble or bronze. Many memorial parks in damp climates will not permit marble, and families that choose bronze soon discover that it tarnishes. Granite always looks beautiful, especially if a little care is given.
Creating a personal memorial
Many families select granite because they can personalize the memorial. Unlike bronze, granite is a canvas upon which your thoughts or inspirations can be carved for eternity. Special tributes, including military service, religious or civic affiliations, personal achievements, family geneaology or unique artistic designs can be carved into granite. It is an impressive way to celebrate your family heritage. The inserts in this brochure show the dramatic range of styles available to you.
