CREATE A MORE PERSONALIZED MEMORIAL:
There are two personalization options available with the Matthews Collection. You can choose to include design elements as part of your remembrance, reflecting the interests and lifestyle of your loved one, or just for added beauty. You may also choose to include an additional inscription or memory phrase as part of your personalized remembrance.
 | Design Elements Design Elements or emblems are available for all Matthews bronze memorials. You can choose up to two design elements for an individual bronze memorial or up to three for a companion bronze memorial. Additional elements are available at a cost of $76.00 per emblem. |
Inscriptions or Memory Phrases
All Matthews memorials include one line of inscription (approximately 5 words) at no additional charge. There will be a charge of $2.20 per character for memory phrases beyond one line of text.
Here are some examples of commonly used memory phrases:
Loving Wife, Mother and Grandmother
Devoted Husband, Father, Grandfather
Caring Hands and a Caring Heart
All My Love Always
  | A Range of Sizes:
To accommodate a wide range of needs and budgets, most memorials are available in four sizes, from 56" x 16" markers for companion plots to the economical 24" x 12" individual size. |
Vases
All Matthews memorials, except the 24" x 12" size, can be produced with a built-in matching vase. When not in use, the vase can be inverted and stored within the memorial for a clean, uncluttered appearance.
Optional Granite Bases:
All of the Matthews Collection memorials allow for the option of a granite base. Granite bases are typically chosen for a variety of reasons from cemetery requirements to the added strength and beauty they provide your memorial.
