A companion headstone is a single memorial for two people, often but not always spouses, standing as one stone in place of two separate gravestones. Each carries the family name above a design chosen for that family, and we craft companion tombstones in a range of sizes, shapes, and granite colors, with our full personalization options available on any of them.
Often people will choose one while both are living. The stone is set with both names, and the second date is added later at the cemetery, a step we handle when the time comes. Choosing together means the design reflects both people rather than one person deciding alone, and it spares your children from making that choice in a difficult time of their lives.
Whether you're planning ahead or making arrangements now, we'll walk you through what the cemetery allows, the sizes available, and what drives the cost, before you decide anything.
