Here at Nalley-Pickle & Welch, we believe one of the most personal decisions to make in life is selecting a final resting place. Some of our neighbors in Midland, Big Spring, and Stanton choose well in advance. They may opt for a cemetery they have a personal connection to or one they believe would be a beautiful place to reside. Maybe they choose based on proximity to family or because they can envision generations of loved ones enjoying the natural surroundings. Others rely on family members to take care of the decision after their death.
Whether you’re thinking about where you’d like to be buried and want to plan ahead or are researching on behalf of a close friend or family member, our professional staff has advice that will help you make a sound decision.
Where will you and your loved ones feel most at peace?
Calm. Peaceful. Tranquil. Over the years, we’ve had countless people describe our cemetery in this way – which is exactly the feeling your cemetery of choice should elicit. When you think of a final resting place, perhaps you envision beautifully maintained landscaped grounds and bright flowers like those found at Trinity Memorial Park.
Every cemetery has its own unique beauty and it’s important you find the location that suits you best.
What options does each cemetery offer?
Some people are interested only in a traditional, in-ground burial while others prefer above ground options. Those considering cremation may think of a columbarium with niches for urns. When you know your preferences and wishes, you can be sure the cemetery of your choice can accommodate.
- In-Ground (Traditional) Burial
Nalley-Pickle & Welch offers some of the most unique burial areas in West Texas including feature lots, estate lots, and beautiful monuments and sculptures.
- Above-Ground (Mausoleum) Burial
At Trinity Memorial Park you’ll find a number of above-ground burial options. Whether public or private, mausoleums offer a secure enclosure that will remain clean and completely dry by not ever letting the casket or vault come in contact with the earth, as entombed bodies remain above the ground in crypts. Mausoleums provide a serene and comfortable environment where family can visit with, pray for, and honor those they love in all seasons, regardless of weather conditions.
What kinds of memorials are available?
A memorial may be as simple as a name and date inscribed on a modest-sized piece of granite, or it can be a sculpture commissioned by an artist whose pieces are exhibited around the world. Unlike other cemeteries, which often restrict your choices to standard “cookie cutter” monuments or flat square or rectangular markers, Trinity Memorial Park offers many customized options to create a beautiful memorial that represents you and your life.
If you’re interested in putting your preferences in writing, we encourage you to contact us to make your pre-arrangements today. We’re here to help you with every detail, as we understand just how important these decisions are for your family today – and for generations to come.
