Hi, Jennifer.
I just wanted to let you know how very pleased I am with my husband's grave marker that was placed on Friday.
It is perfect and my husband would have loved it as well! Both of my children are extremely pleased with the stone too!
Again, thank you so much for making this part of my husband's passing so smooth and easy. I will definitely recommend your business to my family and friends!
Thanks again,

Cathy,
I cannot thank you enough for your wonderful service and the quickness at which you have responded and helped with such a beautiful product! Your kindness and the workmanship of the product is heart-touching. "Thank you" is not sufficient.

Dear Jennifer and to all of those at Custom Design Monuments:
I can’t thank you enough for the beautiful stone that you had designed for my fiancée, Richard J. McCullough and placed at Belknap Cemetery last week.
Being in the cemetery business myself, I know how first-hand how important it is to create these memorializations not only to pay tribute to our loved ones but to help facilitate in our grieving process.
When I drove to the cemetery and saw that memorial for the first time, I dropped to my knees and cried and could not stop crying. Not only is that just a tombstone, it captures him and everything about him he treasured including the color of the stone (black granite), the truck, the bulldogs, the number “102” on the truck and the angel.
You know when your customers cry when they see your final product you know you went over and above in satisfying your customers.
I will be truly grateful to your company for this memorial and would be honored to recommend you to anyone who is need of your services.
Thank you again and again…..
Sue Schwenk
