Engraving & Add-ons across Nebraska, coordinated from first call to final photo
Add new dates, names and details to an existing monument, or personalize a new one. Our engraving team works both on-site at the cemetery and in-shop, using laser and sandblast etching for inscriptions, portraits, medallions and even QR codes. Send close-up photos so the team can assess the existing lettering and agree a suitable approach.
Across Nebraska, engraving & add-ons is delivered through our Midwest network, so you get one clear point of contact and a crew coordinated to your cemetery — with nearby hubs in Illinois, Ohio supporting scheduling across the region.
We work with monuments purchased from any retailer — not just our own family of brands — and every visit in Nebraska is documented with photos so distant families can see the work was done correctly and respectfully.

VA does not pay to affix that medallion to a privately purchased headstone in a non-national cemetery; it delivers the medallion to the applicant.
Source: 38 CFR 38.630
A government headstone or marker should not be altered. VA may replace it to change or add inscription details when the next of kin ask within six months of the original being provided.
