One of the greatest gifts that you can give to your loved ones and friends upon your passing, is to make sure that your final wishes have been detailed. No one likes to talk about funeral plans and it is an even tougher subject to discuss once you have passed. Leave your loved ones knowing that they don’t have to second guess what you would like for your funeral, graveside or memorial markers.
In different countries there are different traditions that are honored. For instance, in Sweden recently, the country started reselling grave sites after the person had been buried for 25 years. You could take advantage of the existing head stones and either add new engravings, busts or other type of statue. Depending on the money you wanted to spend, you could have the previous body exhumed or be buried alongside your new “tomb-mate”. New legislation regarding graves and their current monument markings are changing all over Europe.
Obviously, here in the United States, people place a greater deal of attention to their beloved deceased friends and family and the thought of reselling a grave will not be considered anytime soon. What is interesting however, is that Monument service in CT, as well as all over the world do value the tradition of a marker. The time honored tradition and craftsmanship in companies that specialize in memorial markers is a value that is hard to put a price on.
What we are familiar with here in the United States is that when a loved one is buried, that site should last hundreds of years. It stands to reason then that you would look for a company that has been in the business for over a hundred years and respects the trends, time honored traditions, and quality in product and customer service.
If you are in the market of finding a lasting headstone you not only need to concentrate on craftsmanship and quality but also a company known for their customer service. Whether you are planning on making your own final arrangements or will be giving detailed information in the event of your passing, look to Shelleybrothersmonumentsct.com for a wide range of customer service needs for Monuments in CT that will respect your wishes and will be able to communicate sensitively with those preparing the final resting place.
