Memorialization

Leaving a lasting memorial to remember those who have died is a time-honored tradition. From the pyramids to the Taj Mahal to the Vietnam Memorial, people from across time and cultures have found meaning in honoring the dead in an enduring form. Modern day memorials may be placed in close proximity to where the urn or casket is, or may be just a reminder of one who has died but who rests elsewhere.

Glass Front Niche - For those who desire a dry, climate controlled atmosphere when they come to the cemetery, Glass Front Niches provide an ideal to display the urn. Often the family will include some other small memento to personalize the space.

Granite Front Niche - Granite Front Niches provide a more economical way to memorialize in either an indoor or outdoor setting.

Cored Monuments and Posts - These options, available in the beautiful Urn Garden at West Lawn Cemetery, offer memorials made of natural materials in a park-like setting.

Basalt and Granite Columns - Columns are an excellent option for those who choose to scatter the cremated remains but want a permanent place of remembrance in a convenient location.

Memorial Benches - Granite or wooden benches are a popular form of memorialization that may be placed in a cemetery, park or other location meaningful to the family.
