Low, with a sloped top
The Flint
A raised gray bevel marker. The sloped face is easier to read from standing height than a flat marker.
Why the raised platform
A pillow top is a low stone with a sloped top. It sits on a raised platform. The raised platform prevents mowers from hurting the stone.
It is easier on the neck to kneel down and be face to face with it, vs an upright stone, where you have to kneel like a baseball catcher.

The finished-memorial difference
What "complete" means here
National online headstone retailers sell a stone. We sell a finished memorial, standing straight at the grave, with someone to call afterward.
A design you approve first
Nothing is carved until you have signed a proof: layout, lettering, emblem, and granite, exactly as it will be cut.
Cemetery approval, handled
Every cemetery has rules about size, base, and placement. We file the paperwork and get written approval before work begins.
A poured concrete foundation
A monument is only as straight as what it stands on. We pour a proper foundation to your cemetery's specification.
Professional installation
Our own crew sets the stone: level, aligned, and secured. No freight carrier, no curb, no assembly left to you.
Finishing at the graveside
We finish and inspect the memorial where it stands, then walk it with you, or send photos if you are far away.
Aftercare that answers
Questions next month or next decade come to us in Hudson, where a person picks up. Every memorial also includes a permanent online page for them, with their obituary, photos, and recorded voice, kept at no charge.
Our full finishing-and-installation standard runs 26 steps. Read every one of them.
No mystery, no waiting by the window
What happens after you order
- Step 1
Design and proof
We refine the design together, at your home, online, or by phone, and you sign a proof. Nothing is carved before that.
- Step 2
Cemetery approval
We prepare and file your cemetery's paperwork and secure written approval for the stone and its foundation.
- Step 3
Carving and foundation
The granite is cut, lettered, and finished while the concrete foundation is poured and cured at the cemetery.
- Step 4
Installation and finishing
Once the cemetery approves, installation typically completes within days, not the weeks-to-months families experience with national online headstone retailers.
