The Neuhoff family wanted to create a family monument for their 12 grave lot. They knew they wanted a large cross but also wanted something wide enough to accommodate such a large family space. They liked the look of a matte finish gray granite and the strength it conveys. The Neuhoffs are also very proud of their German heritage. On a visit to Germany, they went to the town of their ancestors and took many photos and brought them to show us. The Catholic church in the town has a stained glass window with the lamb and the cross motif. We showed them the same design in a Strassacker Bronze piece and they loved it! Not only were the Lamb and Cross perfect, it was also made in Germany. The simple, hand-tooled backgrounds accentuate both the Lamb on the Cross and lend depth and a richness to the family name.
