Supreme Memorials

The family behind Supreme Memorials has been erecting family monuments, grave markers, and private mausoleums since 1951. As the company enters its fourth generation, it continues to follow the same values of service and painstaking craftsmanship that the founders, Rosario and Carmine Cassara, based the company on.

Supreme Memorials has three convenient locations in a historical area of Brooklyn, New York, as well as two locations in Staten Island. Visitors are welcome to view what the company describes as the largest indoor display of monuments and grave markers in New York.

Craftsmanship and design

Supreme Memorials works with a team of craftsmen, graphical artists, carvers, etchers and setters. Much of the work is still hand carved, and new technology is also used to create truly custom memorials.

The business originally offered only gray granite and white marble, and over time expanded its selection. Today, it offers many designs and as many as 17 different colors of granite from around the globe.

"Buy Direct and Save" approach

From its early days, Supreme Memorials focused on value by importing marble from Italy and granite from Vermont without middlemen. That "Buy Direct and Save" approach is still implemented generations later, with an emphasis on providing memorials that are described as second to none in quality.

• Headstones and tombstones
• Cemetery monuments and grave monuments
• Granite headstones, gravestones, and cemetery stones
• Grave markers
• Custom headstones and custom memorials
• Cremation memorials
• Mausoleums
• Columbaria / columbariums

The company offers both stock and custom designs, with many granite colors available. A majority of the work is still hand carved, and new technology is used to produce truly custom memorials.
