Memorialization
A memorial provides a lasting way to honor and remember someone special. Washington Cemetery offers a variety of monument and marker options to help families create a meaningful tribute.
Upright Monuments
Upright monuments, commonly known as headstones, are available in a variety of styles and designs. Options may include tables and bases, slants, statuary, artistic designs, and more elaborate custom monuments.
These permanent memorials can be personalized to reflect the life, personality, and memories of the person being honored.
Flat Grass Markers
Flat grass markers, also called flush or lawn-level markers, are installed at ground level and provide a simple, traditional form of memorialization.
They are available in a variety of granite colors and designs and can be installed directly into the ground or on a concrete foundation.
Bronze Monuments & Markers
Bronze memorials offer another timeless way to commemorate a loved one. Bronze plaques are typically mounted on a granite base and designed to lay flat at ground level.
