"To the Staff of Milanos
I had been in Milano Monuments many times before I had to purchase my husband’s headstone. Flowers for the cemetery, candles, books and Christmas items were just some of my previous purchases. So when it came time for this very important purchase there was no question were I would be going.
From the first time I walked in I felt the people there were truly concerned with seeing my vision through to a completed stone. Jim was wonderful in taking my ideas and bringing them to life in an eternal monument to my husband. Through the many revisions, changes and even additions after the stone was complete, there was never a problem. I felt that when you were dealing with me I was the only customer you had.
The final result is a monument that is more beautiful than even I had imagined it. The day my mother-in-law called me in tears on the phone after it had been placed is testament to the true beauty that your staff has brought to what before had just been a piece of stone. The gold on the stone shines as bright as my husband’s eyes did.
The staff at Milanos meets people during the worst times of their lives. The empathy that you feel is apparent to the customers. You never make a person feel like they are just another sale; you make us feel your true care and determination to make the process easier for us. Maybe this is why as you drive through Holy Cross Cemetery you can spot the stones done by Milanos. They are the ones that not only show the information of the person buried, but the love of those who purchased it and dedication of those who created it."
Thank you again.

"Dear Mr. Milano:
Words truly cannot express my thanks and appreciation for the beautiful monument in honor of Officer Joshua Miktarian. I have heard nothing but the highest praise for your design and the craftsmanship displayed in the engraving. I was very happy to see you at the memorial dedication so you could witness the outpouring of support for Holly, Thea, the Miktarian family and certainly for our safety forces. You and your team at Milano Monuments were instrumental in having the evening come together to form a beautiful memory and a fitting memorial in which we can all be proud.
We plan to acknowledge Milano Monuments participation in the memorial at the council meeting on August 25 at 8 PM at
