If you have ever participated in the purchase of a cemetery monument, you will agree with me that the options for artwork can be overwhelming. I personally recommend browsing the internet and getting some basic ideas about your likes and dislikes in regards to monument artwork and designs. Most monument companies will create custom artwork for you if you have something personally unique that you would like to memorialize. Pre-designed artwork can come in the form of wholly completed monument designs or individual components that can be combined into a customized design.
