Loosing our loved ones is the time of grieving and stress. Finding services and help that provide not only what we need, but also a warm and personal support is a rarity indeed. Such was our experience with Niv and Fram Monument Company. The quality of work they delivered is absolutely outstanding. The services are very attentive, personal, and warm - it was a big emotional help to me and my family when we really needed it. For that - huge thanks to Niv and his team! I could not recommend a better company than Fram Monument. Everything we'v experienced with them was excellent - from the first call, to timely and precise communications, to the final result and Niv's warm and supportive words, everything was great. Thank you, Niv and Fram Monument!

When we unveiled the headstone at The Garden of Remembrance, the stone was exactly as we expected. So glad that Niv listened patiently as my mother spoke and suggested this monument be carved in the shape of a book. Niv's guidance helped us fit the appropriate text on the stone. We got so many compliments on the unique stone. People actually took photos to take home and show friends and family. I am so pleased and will continue to recommend Fram Monument Company and Niv's services. Niv's help makes a difficult time easier.

I wanted to let you know that the unveiling for my parents went very well and the stone was lovely. Many people complimented me on how special it was. Thank you for your part in making sure it was ready. Fram Monument and especially Niv Fishbein were great! The exceptional patience and attention to detail made the challenging task of choosing a headstone for both my parents much easier than I would have imagined. Niv, as an observant Jew, was able to help with the wording and choices; he made wonderful suggestions to personalize the engravings. I received so many compliments on the lovely the stone and engravings! There were no upgrade costs for the red marble and added engravings making Fram monument an economical choice as well. I highly recommend Fram monument!

Niv was extremely knowledgeable in guiding me in the direction which would give me the product I desired as a monument remembrance. In selections, I found the quality of each possible memorial to be of the highest standard. The quality of memorial was equal to the price. I did not feel the price was unreasonable but worth every penny. For me personally, I found Niv to be most attentive to what I wanted on the memorial. The result was amazing. Being a single person, I wanted to make sure this part of my passing was not left as a burden for family members. The memorial states who I am, the places I lived, a symbol of the protestant denomination of my birth, a text of a hymn verse, what i did as a career, and last a personal quote. I would highly recommend allowing Fram Monument Company carry out final wishes.

My experience with Fram Monument Company was excellent, and it was at a most difficult time, after the death of a loved one. They were kind, patient, helpful, and did not rush a single part of the process. It took a few months to decide on a marker, and Niv was helpful and offered suggestions without any pressure, and let us decide what was appropriate. I would recommend them highly. The monument is in and it is absolutely lovely and we are very happy with it. Thank you for your kind and helpful guidance at such a difficult time. Janet Eackloff

On behalf of a patriotic organization, I came to Fram Monument Company to install a grave marker for a departed soldier patriot. The marker was provided by my organization, but required installation to a suitable stone which would be inserted in the grave. Niv at the Rockville office of Fram worked with me on the selection of a proper stone base. The company installed the marker on the base and on the grave prior to the dedication ceremony. It was an easy process and well done. Everyone in my organization was pleased with the result. Pat Warner

My husband and I couldn't have been more satisfied with Fram Monument Company. Niv helped us every step of the way with his guidance, professionalism and care as we went through this process, and he was so wonderful in helping us figure out what would be the perfect marker for my mother-in-law. It was absolutely beautiful, and we thank you so much.

Niv at Fram Monument was a pleasure to work with. The stone that he helped me choose was beautiful, and the shaping and inscription were just as I had hoped. When it came time for the unveiling, family and friends were very impressed with the result. Everything was completed and installed just as promised, and, I think, at a fair price. I would recommend Fram to friends without hesitation.

Niv Fishbein was excellent to work with under the stressful and yet very special situation of selecting the proper headstone for our parents. He understands that a graveside headstone is an acknowledgement of a lifetime. His knowledge of Arlington National Cemetery made all of the ANC required details insignificant allowing us to focus on the memory of our parents that we wanted to honor. Fram Monument's pricing policy allowed us to easily select the stone and to have inscribed everything we wanted without having to worry about extra charges. The headstone is perfect.

I honestly was not looking forward to picking out a plaque for my husband, Michael who died last April. I even asked that my daughter accompany me to the Rockville showroom. I must say that Niv made it very comfortable and was very knowledgeable about all of our questions. He let us customize however we wanted and made a difficult decision much easier. He even told us the #HTTR was the first one he had done; there are no right or wrong decisions. We did a small unveiling this past weekend and the plaque was exactly what we had ordered. I highly recommend your company not only for the quality of work but for the heartfelt customer sevice given in the most traumatic time of our lives. Thank you Niv!

Working with Niv at Fram was a pleasure for a bad moment in time. Everything was done in a professional and timely manner, and went out of his way to make sure that the plaque matched the plaques that were already in place. The plaque was the same high quality matching the plaques in place from 20-40 years ago and was cheaper than dealing with the cemetery directly I will definitely use them again when the time comes.

We were most pleased from the moment we entered the Fram Monument showroom. We were greeted promptly upon our arrival and had time to peruse the display room before our scheduled appointment. We were able to select the markers we wished to purchase at our first appointment via computerized images. The markers were placed at the cemetary lot sites by Fram. Quality of the markers was excellent. We highly recommend Fram Monument Company.

My husband, the love of my life, passed away suddenly and very unexpectedly. As can be imagined, losing a loved one left me so grief stricken that just getting thru the necessary task of burial was heart wrenching. It was very important for me to memorialize my husband with a grave marker that would speak to the life he lived and how much he was loved. After several months and unsuccessful meetings with representatives of the cemetery (they simply could not get it done) where my husband was buried, I found Niv, with the Fram Monument Company. The experience was pleasant and comforting. Niv designed a memorial that more than met my expectations. He developed a proof and assured me the marker would be installed in reasonable time and it was. Fortunately, the cost was several hundred dollars less then the quote I received from the cemetery. Working with Niv to get this accomplished was truly a blessing and I am so happy with the marker, it speaks volumes. I believe my husband likes it too!

I would highly recommend Fram Monument Company. Niv was very helpful, professional and went the extra mile. He did not try to steer towards more expensive stones but rather explained what looked and worked best. Very competitive pricing. Very happy with the end result and would use them again.

I was very pleased and relieved with my experience at Fram Monument. I was dreading having to select a marker for my mother's grave. Not only did Niv make the process very easy, but he was also able to closely match the 40-year-old marker on my father's grave. I thank Niv for helping me through a difficult task. I would highly recommend Niv and Fram Monument.

Fram Monument is one of this region's outstanding artisans of monuments and memorials. On top of that, every individual at Fram is courteous, kind and sympathetic to each and every customer who comes through their shop. When my dear and beloved wife died, I wanted to have a special marker for the final resting place of me, my son and my wife. For comparison purposes, I went to the cemetery to see what they had to offer, and at what price, as I wanted pictures inscribed on our marker. Not only did Fram offer more colors and picture options, for the price of a smaller marker with only four pictures, I was able to get a larger marker, that would have the names of all three of us on it, with twice as many pictures. Plus a solid granite bench that would contain as many as up to four cremains. Again, for the price of a smaller marker with only four pictures, I got a larger marker with twice as many pictures and a solid granite, engraved bench that was far better than the bench or the markers offered at the cemetery. I go to my wife's grave every Sunday, and one of the workers at the cemetery said that, by far, our marker was the most unique, and well done, marker in the whole cemetery! He said that our bench, which coordinated with our marker, was the best one in the whole cemetery as well. On top of that, Mr. Fishbein ensured that we were informed throughout the process, the timing and progress of our marker and bench. There was a minor problem with the marker, which was handled within 24 hours. After we placed our order, within 72 hours I got a card at home. It was a contribution on our behalf to the Alzheimer's Association of America. During our conversation, I mentioned to Mr. Fishbein that my mother died from Alzheimer's. Without prompting, he sent a most generous donation on my mother's behalf. Again, he didn't ask, I didn't solicit, he did this from the kindness of his heart. I have since recommended Fram Monument to five other individuals who are in need of a marker, bench or a granite memorial. Fram Monument is a rare treasure in our region. Even if I move away, I will use and definitely recommend that anyone else use their superb services and craftsmanship. They understand why you are there, and could not be more sympathetic and understanding. When you compare the quality, follow-up and value of what they have to offer with anyone else, and you will come away just like I did -- happy, pleased and grateful that you made such a wise decision. Again, I highly recommend that you go to Fram Monument for all of your monument needs. Seamless, caring, thoughtful and professional, they go out of their way to ensure that the memorial you design for your loved one is special and unique -- like the people who own, work and run Fram.

Every once in a blue moon, one comes across a vendor partner like Fram Monument - who exceeds your hopes and expectations in every way. The care they took to ensure I was completely satisfied with the dual headstone for my mother and son was extraordinary and exceptional in every way. Their quote was significantly better than others I received and they focused on the holistic experience rather than trying to upsell and charge me extra for every detail related to elements and engraving. From our initial meeting to installation, the process was seamless. Niv Fishbein is definitely in the right business. He understands and is sensitive to his clients during a difficult time and process. He works with them to create exactly what they want. I designed a very unique headstone for my family members and Niv went above and beyond to deliver. I am forever grateful.
