Its time to start thinking about sorting out a gravestone for mum (and dad)
Dad was buried in the family plot with my eldest brother who died many years ago aged 3. When dad was buried (5 years ago) the FD removed the headstone and stored it. They prepared a report on their recommendations on restoring it as it was badly worn and faded. Mum developed ostrich syndrome and just couldn't deal with it. I've lost mum now and she is now with dad and their first son.
The old gravestone wouldn't have enough space for all their details so I need to think about getting a new one made. It would need to be large enough for three sets of names, dates etc.
I think someone recommended granite was the best material but I'm open to suggestions.
Can anyone advice on how much they think this could cost and also, how long approximately it will take to get made.
Thanks
