We are trying to figure out a headstone for my parents but just ran into a weird regulation.
My parents bought 6 plots when my mom’s parents passed. My mom picked a rock from their yard and had her parent’s last name inscribed on it and put at their graves.
We buried my dad there per his request and my mom is soon to follow.
Well- we just found out the cemetery only allows one upright marker per lot. So we can’t get my parents an upright marker since my grandparents already have one.
We can add their name to the Boulder that has my grandparents last name on it. Or we can get a flat ground marker. Or I think both.
The Boulder is just a big rock with a last name carved into it. But my mother picked it out with lots of love (was a bit of a family controversy)
Just curious what other people would do in this situation?
