Newport Monument Company

PROVIDING MONUMENTS, PLAQUES, AND ENGRAVING

A consistent place for family and friends to visit offers the opportunity for healing and a way to find comfort and connection long after the services are over. We offer a wide variety of personalized options for both burial and cremation. The perfect memorial is a reflection of the life lived and will be there for future generations to learn about their ancestry.

In our modern society, people aren’t given enough time to grieve their losses. The pressures of work, even the simple emotional need to ‘be busy,’ often bring the bereaved back into the ‘real’ world far too soon.

Also, many families are choosing to scatter the cremated remains of their loved one in a favorite place; the ocean, your private property, or even in the skies above. While that may seem fitting at the time, it means that you do not have a consistent place to connect with the memories of the person you loved so dearly.

Having such permanent place – in a cemetery, mausoleum, or cremation garden – that can be visited regularly by family and friends is an essential part of the time following a death. It becomes a focal point of memorialization, and gives everyone a special place to go to remember your loved one, or to commemorate important occasions. It can help to make a birthday or anniversary less painful.

A permanent place to reflect on your loved one becomes a way of connecting to a family’s past. Visiting the resting place of grandparents or great-grandparents may provide children with an anchor to their personal history. It is a connection to the past, to love shared. It truly honors the relationship you still have – and will always have – with that person.

Contact us to explore the options that are appropriate for you, a cemetery monument, a garden plaque, or any number of tributes to help create a permanent place of reflection. This is all too evident in the historical setting of Newport County, there are graves that date back to 1639 in Newport, and for each grave there is a name, a story, and a family.
