Certain cemeteries permit upright monuments while others allow flat markers only.  Other cemeteries require that the grave stones not only be flat with the ground but they must also be made of bronze.  It is important to talk with Kornick & Berliner Monument before purchasing graves or a headstone to ensure you can have the type of memorial you want.  Because we are a Chicago Jewish monument dealer, we can give you an all-inclusive quote so that you will know the total price for placement of the memorial in the cemetery.
