Our master craftsmen, with decades of experience, will bring your vision to life with unmatched precision and care. Every curve, every detail, is meticulously sculpted to perfection.

We are able to create any memorial marker you wish to have, including:

• Single Upright Headstone – A single upright headstone is a vertical monument placed at the head of a single grave plot to memorialize a single individual. It is made of two stones – an upright die and a base. A single upright headstone is the most common type of memorial for honoring the life and memory of a single person.
• Companion Upright Headstone – A double headstone is like a single headstone but for two burial spaces beside or on top of each other. This type of headstone is larger than a typical single headstone and can feature more text, illustrations, symbols, and other designs. It is also usually used by couples who want to be together even in death.
• Flat Markers – These act in the same way as single or double headstones, as they can be used to engrave the same information, but they can also are a cost efficient way to honor a family member or loved one. Flat Markers do not require a base to sit on.
• Slants – These are the beginning introduction to upright monuments. Slants tend to be a more cost efficient option and they can go directly in the ground or on top of a base.
• Bronze Plaques – These can be placed on upright or flat markers. At Cooke and Mabe we only provide the highest quality bronze to our customers
• Moravian Markers – We import the Colorado Yule marble that Moravian markers are made out of, (Unlike a lot of suppliers today who import the marble from Vietnam).
• Specialty Monuments – We provide access to some of the best stone craftsman in the world, and our specialty headstones allow for families to satisfy their individual needs.
