"Hello Bud and Shinta, I picked Larry's memorial rock up this afternoon. Can't thank you enough for the magnificent outcome. Plaque and rock are so very perfect in every way. Bud, the Crematorium staff were very impressed with it and want to advise other people of this opportunity. They also expressed your kind respectful attitude you displayed at all times whilst there at the Crematorium. . I am only sorry I didn't get to meet you. However, I am very grateful to you and all who were involved in making this reverent experience possible. All the best. Very Kind regards" - J. Woodhouse

It is perfect and the council have agreed for us to cement it in so it will now be a permanent feature. The whole team loved the rock and I want to thank you so much for making such an effort to get it to us in time." - Hannah A. |

"Thankyou both digital arts and memorial rocks for being so helpful as well as true to your words, Maybe you could both share helping others in these times as I was just lucky to trip over both companies in confusing times. In any case you can use my photos and appreciation in promoting lovely and excellent service and if you need close up individual photos let me know . So very appreciated" - Dan M. |

"Hi Shinti and Bud I have wanted to make contact a lot earlier than now, but just wanted to thankyou again so much for the amazing memorial rock you created. It was so nice to deal with you both, so very compassionate, very understanding and patient. You made a very hard task a lot easier to deal with. This has been a life changing moment for me to have my Dad home with such a beautiful memorial rock that myself, friends, family, children and grandchildren can visit at any time. You should be very proud of your business and I will make sure to pass you on to friends or family if they may need you in the future. I have attached a picture of my garden that I have just started." - R. Arbon.

"Hello, I just wanted to let you know that the memorial rock that I had ordered has arrived. To say that I am happy with the memorial rock would be an understatement….. I’m overwhelmed with it. It looks fantastic and I’m more than happy with it, and your service. The placement of my dad’s plaque is perfect, as it allows enough room for Mums to go placed to the side. Your attention to detail is great and I so appreciated the phone call about the plaques as well. The decision of what to do with my parent’s ashes was a very hard one for me to have to deal with. It may sound silly, but I didn’t Want them in our local cemetery, as I was finding it very hard to let them go. My cousin told me about your business and what products you had. I’m so happy that she did. The rock is amazing. So, Thankyou again for your great service and product. Kindest Regards, W. Anic"

June 2018 "Hi Bud, I know this has been a long time coming, but I would just like to thank you for the Memorial Rock we purchased from you a couple of years ago. The rock and Memorial Plaque were for my late husband Noel John McEvoy. We have it located in our Crystal Garden and find it such a comfort to be able to sit in our garden and 'have a chat' when we need to feel close to him." - G McEvoy. |

"Just to let you know our Memorial Rock arrived on Thursday and we have placed Rick’s the last container of Rick’s ashes in it with his favorite golf club cove ‘Taz’ the Loony tunes Tasmanian Devil. We decided on a nice place in the garden under the back patio, I’ve attached a couple of photos. Thank you so much we all love it" - K. L. Speyer.

"Today we placed our memorial rock in its place of rest. My mum planted the rosemary in memory of my dad and my grandfather one Anzac Day. On her wedding day she carried a spray of frangipannies. She bought me that angel quite a while ago and this is where she placed it. The smaller angels were brought from my dad's previous place of rest when we were told they could no longer sit on his plaque. The surrounding plants will continue to embrace the stone. It already looks like it is where it belongs. Thank you for your work and the time and consideration you have given to us over the last 6 months. They are once again together as they should be." - L. Merifield.

I am very happy with the Memorial Rock. My husband is now resting in peace in his beloved fernery. I had about 40 people gathered around while my husbands final resting place was put in place and I don't think there was a dry eye anywhere. Everyone was very impressed with it.Cristy Kurt reviewed MEMORIAL ROCK SAFES AUSTRALIA – 5 star
I purchased one of Buds Memorial Rock Safes for my beloved grandmother whom passed feb 6th 2015... I was so impressed and relieved we have a beautiful final resting place for her.. she loved her garden and admired the home she built with her late husband, my grandfather.. so we decided a memorial rock safe placed in the garden with her husband by her side peacefully with the flowers, butterflies and birds was the best place for her to be... I cannot thank Bud enough, he truly goes above and beyond to make sure this sad time is easy and stress free!! Thank you.
Jojo Jojo I will be purchasing very soon for my mum and dad to rest peacefully in my garden! They both loved the garden, and after years of wondering what to do with them, my problem has been solved! What a wonderful idea
Tracy Wilson Roberts : after seeing so many of my ancestors Graves standing alone and forgotten, and knowing the pain of not being able to get to the cemetery as often as i could I was shown your beautiful rocks. it totally changed my mind on burials. I will now be cremated and my ashes shall rest inside the rock and I shall sit in the gardens of my families homes.
Kaye Stapleton reviewed MEMORIAL ROCK SAFES AUSTRALIA – 5 star
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Bud and Memorial Rock Safes Australia.
As my family and friends know.
I have lost 3 very special people in my life within 2.5 years.
It will be 17 years in July this year since my daughter Susan passed away and I have kept hers and my mother’s ashes at my place since their funerals, I did this for 3 reasons one was a lack of funds 2 was I had Susan’s 5 very young children to raise and put through school and 3 I have had such a hard time letting go and I still do.
About 5 weeks ago I saw a place called Memorial Rock Safes on Facebook I liked what I saw, so I took mum and Susan down to see the owner Bud. He is a very nice man and I highly recommend him and his memorial rocks.
I purchased 2 rock safes and I had Susan’s and my mother’s ashes sealed inside. I also ordered Memorial Plaques for each Rock these took 4 weeks after Bud ordered them from the foundry but well worth the wait.
During the past few weeks with the help of my son Shane I have made a Memorial Garden in my yard for both my mother and daughter to be placed in.
They both arrived back home on Thursday in time for Mother’s Day.
Thank You Kaye.
