Poignant tributes to loved ones
While both lawn memorial headstones and kerbed memorials serve as poignant tributes to loved ones, kerbed memorials offer distinct benefits that may resonate with certain families:
Increased Personalization: Kerbed memorials provide a larger surface area for customization compared to traditional headstones. This allows families to include more extensive inscriptions, additional designs, photographs, or even personal items like flowers, mementos, or decorative elements.
Enhanced Privacy: The border created by kerbed memorials can offer a sense of privacy and intimacy for families visiting the grave site. This defined space can provide a dedicated area for reflection, remembrance, and personal moments of connection with the departed loved one.
Protection and Maintenance: Kerbed memorials can offer a degree of protection for the grave site by delineating boundaries and preventing encroachment from neighboring plots. Additionally, the raised kerbing can help contain soil and prevent erosion, reducing maintenance needs and preserving the aesthetic appeal of the grave site.
Distinctive and memorable tributes
Visual Impact: The larger size and raised profile of kerbed memorials can create a striking visual impact in a cemetery setting. Families may appreciate the opportunity to create a distinctive and memorable tribute that stands out amidst the surrounding landscape, serving as a lasting testament to the life and legacy of their loved one.
Symbolic Significance: For some families, the act of enclosing the grave with kerbing can hold symbolic significance, representing a sense of protection, unity, or continuity with the deceased. The border created by kerbed memorials can serve as a tangible expression of love, respect, and commitment to honoring the memory of the departed.
Versatility in Design: Kerbed memorials offer versatility in design, allowing families to incorporate various materials, shapes, and styles to create a unique and meaningful tribute. From traditional granite kerbs to more modern and creative designs, there are endless possibilities for customization to reflect the personality, interests, and legacy of the deceased.
