🛑Please Read:
Last week our install truck, with our crane, was totaled. We are thankful that our crew are OK and miraculously made it out without being hurt.
We are currently on the hunt for a crane truck we are able to rent while we wait for our new crane truck to be available and delivered.
This has unfortunately set us back on installs that require a crane to be used. This is very frustrating for us, and our customers, and we would like to thank our customers for their patience.
In the meantime, if anyone has any information in regards to a crane truck we’re able to rent temporarily, while we eagerly await the arrival of our new one, please let us know.
Thank you.
A friendly reminder in regards to our Beckley location. 😊

🗿Tombstone Tuesday🗿
Let's talk about cremation.
When people choose to be cremated or a family chooses to cremate their loved one, they often think that memorialization is unnecessary.
Originally grave markers, or monuments/tombstones, were just a means to mark the grave. For many areas, a tombstone was a historical record. As time went on, so did record keeping and people’s idea of how a tombstone should look. This simple historical record was transformed into a monument, which in latin translates to “to remind”. People wanted a place to go to remember someone.
Many people don't know that there are many ways in which you can combine the choice of cremation with memorialization. Whether it is a granite bench at a golf course, a sculpture in a park or a rustic boulder by a river or a lake, unique cremation memorials can fulfill your desire to remember.

🗿 Tombstone Tuesday 🗿
A cemetery or graveyard is a place where the remains of deceased individuals are buried or otherwise interred. ... The term graveyard is often used interchangeably with cemetery, but a graveyard primarily refers to a burial ground within a churchyard.

🗿Tombstone Tuesday🗿
Spring Hill Cemetery in Charleston is West Virginia's largest cemetery.
After Charleston's original municipal cemetery ran out of space in 1869, Spring Hill Cemetery began.
The large complex overlooks the city, and is a popular place for both bird watchers and historians. Many key figures in the development of West Virginia and Charleston rest there.
The cemetery showcases many different styles, types, and sizes of monuments and mausoleums.

No better way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day than to talk about St. Patrick himself and the meaning of the shamrock!
The shamrock and Irish culture are so intertwined thanks to Ireland’s patron saint, St. Patrick. Legends attest to St. Patrick using the three petals of the shamrock to illustrate the mysteries of the Holy Trinity to the Celtic pagans. Each leaf represented the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. ☘️
