Flat Markers, sometimes referred to as foot stones, are generally 4-inches thick. There are several ways to set a Flat Marker.

• Flush without collar: The marker would be set flush in the ground, with no cement collar.

• Flush with collar: The marker would be placed in a cement collar, usually about 5" around the marker, and then set flush in the ground.

• Above Ground: The marker would be set on a pre-cast cement foundation

Beveled Markers are generally 6-inches tall in the back, tapering to 4-1/2-inches in the front, or 8-inches tall in the back, tapering to 6-1/2-inches tall in front. Beveled Markers are always set on a concrete foundation; however a matching granite base may be used in place of the concrete foundation.

Slant Markers are generally 2' to 4' in length, 16" tall, and cut with a tapered face. Set on a concrete or granite foundation. To add a "special touch", you may add a matching granite "base" between the foundation and the Slant Marker..

Monuments are often referred to as head stones or upright memorials.
They consist of three separate pieces:

1. A concrete or granite foundation

2. A granite base

3. The granite tablet or die

Tablets are generally available in two thicknesses: 6-inches, or 8-inches. The thickness of the tablet determines the height of the base.

Backed Benches are suitable for a cemetery setting, or they can be used in a less traditional location, such as a golf course, a park, or a church.

Backed benches are also suitable for non-memorial use.

Garden Benches are backless benches that can be used in almost any setting, and are commonly used in veteran and war memorials, as in some of our civic memorials.

 

As cremation grows in popularity, we would still like to encourage you to consider a traditional memorial for your loved one. Traditional memorials provide an important place for you to maintain your connection to your loved one and your memories.

A cremation memorial can be a personal or family memorial located in a traditional cemetery setting. Even if the cremains are not interred in the cemetery, the deceased's name can still be inscribed on a memorial and placed in the cemetery, providing the family with a focus for their time of grieving and a place for future generations to visit.

At Johnson Monument, we offer several options for cremation memorials, including columbarium’s, cored-for-cremains memorials, and cremation benches.

Back to Nature

We have several “natural uncommon’ shapes granite which may be used for business markers or cemetery markers if the cemetery allows. Give me a call and I would be happy to get more information to you on our “Back to Nature’ pieces.
