The desire to perpetuate the memory of those held in affection and honor is one of the major instincts of man – the memorial instinct. It is one of the finest and most unselfish of all human emotions and is best demonstrated by the use of a beautiful memorial, built of fine material which will endure through the ages.
Beauty, durability or permanence, and appropriateness are the three qualities every memorial should possess, and being able to supply these three things places a great responsibility on the memorial dealer and his sales force. Since the memorial is the only “one-purchase” item most families will buy, it is imperative that an appropriate design, fine material and the best craftsmanship possible be made available.
It is always good to check with the cemetery for the requirements of what is allowed for monument work in their cemetery. Some cemeteries have rules to give unity and order to different families. Some may require a certain style or type of monument. Even some church graveyards may have some restrictions that they hope the congregation abides by. We are knowledgeable for most of the cemeteries around the Aiken-Augusta area, and have the experience to know what to recommend. We will be honored in helping your family choose a beautifully crafted memorial.
