    New Cremation Gardens, Rogue Monument Companies & Protecting Your Cemetery

    Bobby is back after a busy stretch of softball, hockey and one nasty migraine. He and Dominic catch up on life before Dominic shows off his cemetery's nearly finished cremation area: individual family columbariums and boulders next to a quiet wetland, with a small fountain, built almost entirely by his own crew. Then they get into a growing headache for cemeteries: new and unfamiliar monument companies. They tell stories about lettering that was never approved, foundations nobody ordered, concrete borders that aren't allowed, and a company that took families' deposits and disappeared. Their advice is to check vendor insurance, require the lot owner's signature on every drawing, and never take on liability for work you aren't being paid for. They finish with fall prep (foundations, leaf season, and shutting off the water) and some talk about future guests.

    Best Of: Trevor Crean from Heritage Gardens on forward-thinking cemetery ideas

    Bobby is under the weather this week, so we're bringing back one of our favorite conversations. We are joined by Trevor Crean, owner of Heritage Gardens Cemetery in Surrey Canada. He started a cemetery 8 years ago, and has some great insight and ideas for what customers are looking for, and forward thinking ideas about how cemeteries should operate. It is a great conversation. Trevor will be a speaker at the 2026 Minnesota Association of Cemeteries conference in September.
