About Us
Rowland Monuments, located on Main Street in Bethel Springs, TN was established in 1986 by owner Anthony Rowland. He felt a strong desire to serve people by helping them memorialize their loved ones with monuments that their families could be proud of for many, many years. His first location was on Hwy. 45 in Selmer, TN and he moved to his present location in Bethel Springs in 1990. Mr. Rowland added sand-blasting equipment and began doing all the carving and designing himself. In 1995, an existing company in Bethel Springs was purchased and their equipment was integrated into their system. It was at that time that Anthony built new sand-blast facilities and a warehouse, adding a sand-blasting room, shaping room, overhead crane and more new equipment to make his operation first class.

As his business grew, his wife, Vickie joined him to help with sales and office responsibilities. She also began assisting with designing memorials and sales.

In 1994, Rowland Monuments became the first company in the area to add a computer design system called "Composer", which allows the ability to design memorials to customer specifications. The system contains hundreds of floral designs, religious emblems, panel designs, and numerous font styles from which a family can choose for creation of their special memorial. We sit down with the family and design the memorial, including all designing and lettering, and the customer leaves with a printed copy of the chosen memorial, so one knows exactly how it will look. There are no surprises when it is delivered to the cemetery. This not only shows proportionately how the monument will look, it reduces errors on spelling, dates, and design.

Not only does Rowland Monuments design its own monuments, all carving and lettering is done at the company's own facilities. Most companies sell a monument, then order it from another company and never actually touch the stone until it arrives to be set in a cemetery. Rowland Monuments is the only company in the area who has access to complete sand-blasting facilities, and we do all of our own work on site.

Rowland Monuments offers a large selection of colors and styles in granite, for products ranging from infant memorials to large double memorials and a large variety of custom made vases, benches, foot stones, and corner posts. Our company also engraves death dates on existing monuments in the cemetery.

Anthony and Vickie Rowland are members of MBNA (Monument Builders of North America), an organization of business people from across the nation in the monument industry. We are also members of Tennessee Monument Builders, a state organization of which Anthony is a past president. Rowland Monuments is an active member of the McNairy County Chamber of Commerce.

In January 2000, Anthony & Vickie became two of the first "Certified Memorialists" in West Tennessee. This is a high honor, of which they are very proud. This accomplishment came after many hours of class and study to increase their knowledge of the monument business and the newest technology in the industry. They have attended conventions in various states and performed many hours of public service work, activities that have increased their knowledge of the monument industry.
