Design can be the shape of the stone, special cuts to make layers, and the engraving of a beautiful piece of sandblasted artwork. Ask us to assist you with a design, you will be pleased you did.

Shafer Memorials, along with others, were part of those whom helped with the creation of the Mitchell Graceland Baby section in 1993. We continue to donate the markers for the babies buried in this section as we have from the beginning. Our hearts go out to each family who goes through this loss.

South Dakota Mahogany granite is a nice warm color tone. The family wanted a headstone for their sister with a little different shaping to compliment her parents she is next to.

Clients are asking for a more natural, boulder look for a monument option. This half boulder is in our display on a custom rocked base which is complimented by a rustic vase/planter. The back and sides are still the natural boulder it was cut from, the front was polished for engraving to show up crisply.

Now in our 100th year of our family business. Still in the same location, with a few changes.
As always, we offer ‘Friendly Consultation, Without Obligation’
Shafer Memorials has been a family business in the same location Since 1919, we are now proudly in our 6th generation.
We feel it is important to remain doing the engraving of our memorials ourselves. In our shop we not only engrave the name, dates, and artwork—but we do the hand carving you see in the flower petals and leaves.
It is a learned craft passed down thru the generations that we are proud to say we have kept alive. And because we do our own engravings we are able to carry a large display on site, in a lot of cases we are able to take the exact unit you have chosen in our display and take it to our shop to complete the engravings for you. We then do the placement of the monuments at the cemeteries ourselves as well.
We offer no obligation consultations to help walk you thru the many choices when designing a personal memorial.
