Gibbons
Granite memorials for Gibbons families
We are about 35 minutes north-east, which puts every cemetery serving Gibbons inside the area we deliver and install to. Families here are usually buying for Gibbons Cemetery and the Sturgeon County grounds around Bon Accord and Redwater, and each of those grounds has its own rules about memorial size, thickness and whether an upright is allowed at all. Call the shop
Rural Sturgeon County cemeteries are often maintained by volunteer committees rather than a municipal office. We know who to call at most of them, which saves families a lot of phoning around.
Everything we make is cut and lettered on 181 Street in west Edmonton — solid granite, sandblasted by hand, never ordered in finished and resold. You are welcome to come and see the stone at full size before it goes out to Gibbons, and a good number of Gibbons families do exactly that. Ask for a quote
If you do not yet know what your section allows, that is the normal starting point and not a problem. Tell us the cemetery and the plot number and we will find out, in writing, before you make a single decision about granite or wording. There is no charge for that and no obligation attached to it.

Why us
Why Gibbons families work with us
We know the Gibbons cemeteries
We have set memorials at Gibbons Cemetery and the Sturgeon County grounds around Bon Accord and Redwater and we know what each one accepts. Before we quote you anything we confirm your section's size, thickness and finish rules in writing with the cemetery.
Clear, itemised pricing
The memorial price covers the granite, the engraving and two designs, with any amount of front lettering in any language. Delivery and installation to Gibbons are quoted separately and stated up front, alongside the cemetery's own permit fee — nothing appears at the end that was not on the quote.
A proof before anything is cut
You see a scaled drawing of the finished memorial and check every name, date and word on it. Proofs are free, we redraw as many times as needed, and nothing goes to the saw until you approve it.
The cemetery paperwork is ours
Permit applications, size approvals and foundation scheduling are handled by us. You should not have to learn how a cemetery permit works while you are grieving.
Locally
What Gibbons families usually choose
Gibbons and the Sturgeon County cemeteries around it allow uprights, so families here have more design freedom than they would in most of the city. Single uprights in grey and black granite are the common order. The practical complication is administrative rather than technical: several of these grounds are run by volunteer committees, and knowing who currently holds the records saves a great deal of phoning.
Gibbons questions
Asked by families here
Who do I contact for a memorial permit at a Sturgeon County cemetery?
It varies by cemetery and, honestly, by year — many are run by volunteer committees and the contact changes. We keep a current list for the grounds around Gibbons, Bon Accord and Redwater and we make the call as part of quoting, which saves families a lot of unreturned voicemails.
Are uprights allowed in Gibbons Cemetery?
Yes. Gibbons and most of the rural Sturgeon County grounds permit upright monuments, which is worth knowing if you have been told flat-only somewhere in the city. We will confirm the specific height and base allowance for your plot before designing.
