Custom Gravesite Markers
When you're looking to honor a loved one who has passed, a gravesite marker provides a meaningful and lasting tribute. A gravesite marker is a flat or slightly raised memorial placed at the burial site, engraved with the person’s name, dates, and often a special message or design. It serves as a permanent reminder of their life, offering a place for reflection, remembrance, and connection.
Milligan Memorials in Coshocton, OH, offers custom grave markers as a lasting way to honor your loved one’s legacy. From flat grass markers to slant markers, we’ve been helping families for generations with compassion, craftsmanship, and care.
Flat Grass Markers
Simple and elegant, these lie flat with the ground and are perfect for a clean, understated tribute. These are generally 20 to 48 inches wide, and the top is usually set flush to the ground.
Similar to a grass marker, but the top is slanted from back to front, and the marker normally protrudes 6"-12" above the ground. Bevel markers provide a more visible design while maintaining a low profile.
These are larger monuments with an angled face. They may be set on a raised base, also of granite, or directly on a concrete foundation. Slant markers offer a classic appearance and allow for more detailed inscriptions and artwork.
