Why Buy a Monument?

Today more than ever, people understand the wisdom of planning ahead by taking out insurance policies, setting aside savings, and making a will. Advanced memorial planning is no different.

Here are 10 reasons we believe memorial planning is especially important:

1. A memorial should be a joint decision.

As partners, you've shared your lives and made important decisions together. Since a memorial is the most enduring thing you will ever purchase, it should be a joint decision, too.

2. It completes your estate planning.

As partners, you've shared your lives and made important decisions together. Since a memorial is the most enduring thing you will ever purchase, it should be a joint decision, too.

3. The choice will reflect your wishes.

Your choice of a home, car, or vacation spot reflects your wishes. Why let others select your memorial?

4. Your heirs won’t be left guessing.

It is both unwise and unfair to burden your heirs with the task of choosing your memorial. By choosing one now, your preferences will be accounted for.

5. Your insurance will fulfill its intended purpose.

Purchase a memorial now, and you'll have the security of knowing that your estate, savings, and insurance funds can all go toward those you love most.

6. The decision won’t have to be made at an emotional time.

At times of grief and loss, it can be very difficult to make important choices. By working with us now, you’ll make a better, more well-informed decision. Unlike a pre-paid funeral, you can move your memorial with you if you relocate.

Some don't want to buy and place a memorial in advance because they’re concerned that they may relocate. Thankfully, a memorial can easily and inexpensively be moved.

8. No matter what happens, memorialization will be assured.

No one can predict the future. Pre-purchase is your protection against life’s uncertainties — your guarantee that your memorial will happen as you want it to.

9. We can promise you and your family peace of mind.

A memorial should be forever. As such, the famed Rock of Ages Full Perpetual Warranty explicitly states that any granite part of your memorial will be replaced should that it prove defective due to the quality of our granite or workmanship.

10. A memorial is easier to afford than ever.

When you purchase now, we can help you develop a payment schedule that allows you to spread the cost over three years — and it's guaranteed not to increase.
