Our Monument Offerings
Greater Atlanta Memorials offers a wide variety of monument sizes and styles to suit every cemetery requirement and family budget. We hope this guide will be helpful in determining which type of monument you are interested in.
Companion Monuments
These monuments typically have inscription panels on their faces for individuals.
Mausoleums or Crypts
These may be large enough to walk into and may provide room for one to twelve spaces, depending upon the size.
Flat Markers
These are also called Grass Markers or Flush Markers because they are flat, flush with the grass at the grave site.
Slant Markers
These are called Slants because of their slanted face. This face makes the monument easier to read as a visitor approaches the grave from a distance. These are available in single and double sizes.
Wing-Style Monuments
These are popular companion-style monuments and present a nice opportunity for a flower vase.
Bevel Markers
These are called Bevels because of the beveled or slanted face of the marker. This makes the monument easy to read when standing at the foot of the grave site.
Ledgers
Grave Ledgers, also called Covers, are ideal for use with Family or Estate monuments where individual graves need to be marked. These offer ample room for inscriptions and dates.
Etchings
Etchings are typically made on black stones and may be created by hand with a diamond-tipped tool or with a laser. Etchings may be high-contrast black-and-white or in color.
Benches
Benches are an ideal way to remember a loved one in a non-traditional setting, such as a courtyard or other public area. Some cemetery lots may be large enough to allow a bench.
Family or Estate Monuments
These monuments typically display a family name and include multiple ledgers, bevel markers, slant markers, or flat markers to represent individual family members.
Individual Monuments Section
These monuments are typically smaller and are ideal for individuals. It is possible to place inscriptions on one of these monuments for two individuals; space may be limited.
Half Serpentine Monuments
These monuments may be used for Family or Estate monuments, Individual Monuments, or Companion monuments, depending on the arrangement of the inscriptions and placement of markers or ledgers for individuals. It is also a nice way to feature a vase for flowers.
Columbarium or Cremation Monument
Most monuments may be fitted with a cored space in the monument or base for the storage of cremains. Some monuments, however, are specially designed for cremains. The small cremation bench and the larger columbarium shown below are just two examples of alternatives.
