The "Economical Headstone" concept was developed here at Eaglecarver for the purpose of providing an economical and durable method of marking an unmarked grave. We have discovered that as genealogy "hunters" locate their ancestors quite often they may come across some that are buried in unmarked graves. Many times they have a desire to mark them in some way yet often have several that they would like to mark which makes the cost of granite monuments prohibitive. The economical headstones can be designed and engraved to the customers specifications, shipped economically via USPS and then adhered to a cinder cap block once they arrive at their destination. This can then be buried flush to the ground surface to allow for easy mowing, yet be a durable marker for many years to come. Cost of a Corian face, such as those displayed, typically runs $78.50 and up depending on additional graphics or any other special engraving other than lettering which is included in the price.
Also available are custom "re-face" of existing monuments that may have become unreadable over the years. This can be non-destructively adhered using 100% Silicone and provide a durable surface with engraving to restore the dates and information that are no longer visable on the original headstone.

This infant's grave was marked by a leftover piece of marble. Information was lightly scratched onto the surface and was no longer readable. This re-face in Corian brought new life to the marker.
Headstones that were used as movie props for the movie "Torn From Normal"
Click to see the trailer from the movie "Torn From Normal" which shows these headstones towards the end. Yes, I'm proud of getting them in the movie but thrilled they even made it in the trailer of the movie. Great book also, check it out on Amazon.com
