Markers
Grave markers have earned their name because of their traditional function of marking a gravesite. Flat-grass markers (also called flats or flush markers) are almost always rectangular and flush with the ground so that cemetery mowers can ride freely over them without damaging them. Bevel markers (also called Bevels or Hickeys) protrude from the ground and have a slightly beveled (slanted) face and rock pitch sides (natural rocky appearance). Grave markers are traditionally made from granite but are also available in bronze or a combination of bronze with a granite surround. Bronzes are discussed in the corresponding menu link to the right. Although marker style options are limited, they are a very dignified and respectable way to mark a family member's or loved one's grave and they are available in many different granite colors and have virtually unlimited engraving options. Please note that many cemeteries have sections that either do not allow or only allow grave markers. It is important to contact Gaydos Monument Company so we can confirm these details for you prior to purchasing.
