Greater Lansing Monuments recently installed my dad's bronze military marker on my parents' headstone. The headstone was purchased from GLM many years ago. My dad recently passed at age 104. Our family is very pleased with their workmanship and kindness in working with us.

My husband's stone is exactly what I wanted! The slight slant fits the hillside where he is interred beautifully. Thank you, Tim, for assuring me that it would work. From design concept to completion, you made it so much easier for me than I thought it would be. And, I can't say enough about the artist who did the engraving. Such amazing work. I gladly give your family business a five-plus star rating.

Greater Lansing Monuments did a wonderful job for us. Communication was great with Tim & Tracey. We met with Tim about adding a third surname to our family plot monument and for help in designing a headstone for my wife and I. Tim helped us bring our ideas to fruition. We even made a few changes and additions along the way, and Tim was very accommodating. The end result was perfect! The additional surname and scroll on our monument matched perfectly and our headstone turned out beautifully. We couldn’t be more pleased. We have family members who will also be using Greater Lansing Monuments. Kent Curtis

They did an amazing job for my grandmothers headstone. They dealt with the cemetery and I didn’t have to worry about anything. The monument was absolutely beautiful. They even took photos of the headstone at the cemetery for me so I could see it. I definitely recommend buying from them because the process was easy and seamless. Thanks for everything!
