Three Groups

All cemetery memorials can be
grouped into three distinct CLASH
fications according to purpose or
function. And these three distinct
groups can In turn be su5dlvided
into clearly defined types Accord
ing to design. This grouping and
classification greatly simplifies the
problem OF selecting a memorial. Il
is simple, logical and efficient. For
example. the lot-owner should first
decide II the memorial Is TO be 2
tomb, a family monument or A tri-
butte to one person. once this func-
ton or purpose Of the memorial
has been determined, the selection
of a design can likewise be Simpli-
fled by a systematic Classification.
