Gifford Monument Works is Ada's original family-owned headstone and monument company. Nearly 90 years of craftsmanship, right here in your community.
Gifford Monument Works was founded in Ada, Oklahoma in 1936. We're not a national chain or an online-only store — we're your neighbors, and we've been serving Pontotoc County families for nearly 90 years.
We know Ada's cemeteries — Rosedale Cemetery, Ada Memorial Park, and the dozens of smaller rural cemeteries throughout the county. When you work with us, you get real local knowledge, not a generic product shipped from out of state.
Every monument starts with a conversation about what matters to your family. Our design process is personal, our pricing is transparent, and we handle everything — from design to cemetery installation.
All styles available in 40+ granite colors with custom engraving and full cemetery installation included.
The classic choice for Ada cemeteries. Fully personalized with names, dates, portraits, and custom artwork. We handle base installation at Rosedale Cemetery, Ada Memorial Park, and other Pontotoc County cemeteries.
From $2,800Set flush with the ground, these markers are required by many Ada-area cemeteries for lawn maintenance. Available in all granite colors with full personalization.
From $1,204A popular choice across southeastern Oklahoma — slightly raised for visibility, low-profile enough for most cemetery rules.
From $2,460Two names on one stone — designed for couples or adjacent family plots. Popular at Ada Memorial Park.
From $4,258VA-compliant designs honoring service members from the Ada area. Military branch emblems, rank, dates of service, and decorations.
From $2,800Custom shapes and gentle artwork approached with patience and care. No templates unless that's what the family wants.
