There are lots of resources available to help you, both in your grief journey and with the selection of a memorial. We hope to share some of those resources here at our site, and in our offices. Our business philosophy has never been one of monument sales as much as it has been being there to lend a helping hand and a listening ear. My husband and I both have stories of loss, as do each of our employees. We’ve been there, which is to say we’ve experienced grief in our own lives, and we hope that makes us more compassionate, caring people who are able to better serve the needs of our families. That’s part of the reason why Kellogg Memorials is unique in our industry. We focus on relationships and building connections with the families we work with.
