Memorial Markers in Los Angeles
Unveiling the Marker
A Timeless Memorial
In Jewish tradition, permanent memorial markers are placed at any time during the first year of mourning, with the unveiling often marking a meaningful moment of remembrance. Once the marker is set, families may hold an unveiling ceremony, a traditional tribute to honor their loved one’s memory. Hillside provides supportive arrangements, including chairs and an unveiling curtain, to create a respectful and comforting experience.
Marker Options
Our selection of dignified markers are examples that may be purchased and customized to best honor your loved one’s life and legacy:
Dark Beveled Granite
Our dark beveled granite markers provide a simple yet iconic appearance by throwing carved white epitaphs into stark relief.
Polished Bronze
Choose brass options that grow even more beautiful with age as oxidation creates a stately turquoise patina through exposure to natural elements.
Speckled Granite
Speckled granite’s deep coloring makes it a beautiful choice for headstones with a complex yet understated visual effect.
Jerusalem Stone
Common throughout Israel, the pale limestone of Jerusalem stone turns any marker into a meaningful tribute to the Holyland and Jewish tradition.
Times for Different Marker Options
Granite markers, commonly used in our ground burial sections, take approximately eight weeks to produce and set, while bronze markers for mausoleums and some ground sections require around 16 weeks.
