Permanent Memorialization

In our modern society, people aren't given enough time to grieve their losses. The pressures of work, even the simple emotional need to ‘be busy,’ often bring the bereaved back into the ‘real’ world far too soon.

Also, many families are choosing to scatter the cremated remains of their loved one in a favorite place; the ocean, or even in the skies above. While that may seem fitting at the time, it means that you do not have a consistent place to connect with the memories of the person you loved so dearly.

Having such permanent place - in a cemetery, mausoleum, or cremation garden - that can be visited regularly by family and friends is an essential part of the time following a death. It becomes a focal point of memorialization, and gives everyone a special place to go to remember your loved one, or to commemorate important occasions. It can help to make a birthday or anniversary less painful.

A permanent place to reflect on your loved one becomes a way of connecting to a family's past. Visiting the resting place of grandparents or great-grandparents may provide children with an anchor to their personal history. It is a connection to the past, to love shared. It truly honors the relationship you still have – and will always have – with that person.

Upright Memorials

About a decade ago, Lawnwood realized the need to better serve our client families by allowing the ability to mark your loved one’s final resting place with a more traditional granite headstone. We offer a full line of upright granite monuments crafted from beautiful Georgia granite quarried in Elberton. This quality Georgia granite creates a truly amazing way to memorialize that cherished loved one. All granite monuments can be customized in many of the same ways as the flat bronze memorials Lawnwood is known for. The sections in which upright memorials are permitted limited.
