That's my business in the states, but I don't know any designers here. I did visit a nice cemetery in Licey and they sold memorials directly to families themselves. Try that or ask a local funeral director. Blandino has a good reputation from what our Dominican customers tell me. Several times a year we get Jamaican customers who will buy a bronze plaque in the states and then take it as checked baggage to Jamaica. We've done a few things like that for Albanians as well. Granite is much too heavy to take on a plane, even if it's a small marker. What size and material are you looking for? I'd be happy to offer any help I can with design and pricing.

You're very welcome. If you haven't done so already, check with the cemetery and see what they allow/require. Every cemetery in the world has regulations, so there's no point in looking at things you can't have. Suerte!
