We are still looking for someone to give a headstone to. If we don’t get any replies by March 27 we are going open it up more.

❤️ Wood County Community – Annual Headstone Giveaway ❤️

We are honored to announce that we will be giving away one free headstone each year to a family in need here in Wood County.

For 2026, this giveaway will be for a child (newborn to 18 years old).

This headstone will be identical to the one pictured below, beautifully crafted and powder coated for long-lasting durability. We have been blessed to place several metal headstones throughout Wood County, and it means so much to us to continue serving families in our community.

✨ This gift includes installation by us at no cost to the family. ✨

Requirements:
• The child must be buried in Wood County, Texas
• The cemetery must allow metal headstones
• Age newborn to 18

If you know a family who could benefit from this gift, please message us privately. Nominations are welcome. We understand how sensitive this is, and all messages will be handled with care and confidentiality.

It is our prayer that this small act can bring comfort and honor the memory of a precious life. 🤍

Please feel free to share to help us reach the right family.

This was a special headstone for one of my dad’s good lifelong friends who worked and drove trucks together. The family came to us with an idea and with a little time we had it drawn up and started to work on it. Finished the install a couple weeks ago and it turned out great.

These handrails were for a repeat customer and needed these built on a timeline. Only catch they were going to Eden Utah for a summer home. If i give you measurements can you build these and I want them out of hammered tubing. Yes sir we sure can. Install was done over the holiday weekend and customer sent us pictures. They turned out great.
