MONUMENTS
Monuments are often referred to as headstones or upright memorials. They consist of three separate pieces – a granite foundation, a granite base and the granite tablet or die. Granite memorials can be made for an individual or companions and are an everlasting tribute to your loved one. Your granite cemetery memorials can be custom-made to your wishes in several colour choices of granite and numerous designs.
