Factory Direct Memorials
St. Michael’s Cemetery is proud to provide those we serve with memorials and headstones at wholesale prices. By working directly with suppliers across the world, we’re able to offer unique stones and designs that are hard to find in Edmonton, and at prices that are significantly lower than other providers. We understand this is a difficult time for the families of those who have passed, and it shouldn’t be cost-prohibitive to provide their loved one with the memorial they deserve.
The granite we use for our memorials is sourced directly from quarries in Canada, the United States, China, India, and parts of Europe. The memorials are covered under each respective manufacturer’s lifetime warranty, protecting you from any defects or subpar workmanship. Should you need a memorial within a short period of time, we have a large inventory of in-stock memorials for you to choose from. Otherwise, custom memorials can usually be crafted and installed within 8-9 weeks of being ordered.
We would be happy to provide you with more information on all the memorials or headstones we can supply and their pricing. Please contact Marc Turgeon (780) 424-5493 at St. Michael’s Cemetery to discuss the options available to you and pricing.
