What families say
In their own words
Working with Marty was such a positive experience. Marty tailored the graphics we chose to be exactly what we envisioned. He gave us clear communication on what to expect. ... It was indeed done in time for Memorial Day and turned out just beautiful.
Erin P.Google review, a year ago We worked with Marty and he was very easy to work with, helped us figure out placement of pictures we wanted on our mom's memorial stone, and even drew a picture for us that we couldn't find in the book! ... This is the place to go.
Angela T.Google review, a year ago We have purchased a couple of monuments from Indianola Memorial Works. We appreciate Marty's assistance and professionalism. When we requested a tweak to a headstone that had just been placed, Marty took immediate care of it.
