Cold Spring Memorial Group was present with a 60’ x 20’ booth display, which included a large, walk-in mausoleum, featuring open-ended galleries flanked by exterior crypts and niches. For the first time in several years, Cold Spring Memorial Group displayed a private family estate mausoleum, and the breathtaking architectural display received rave reviews from attendees and offered visitors the opportunity to see the inside of the mausoleum. It also succeeded in drawing people to the booth, inviting them to stay for other displays, which included a columbarium and perhaps the most popular attraction, the bench designs. The benches, stunningly designed resting places, are intended to provide sanctuary to those mourning or celebrating the memory of friends, family and loved ones. Often used to complement private mausoleums, community mausoleums, cemetery gardens or scattering gardens, these granite benches stood out on their own.

As another main attraction, Cold Spring Memorial Group featured the beautiful, highly detailed, Expressions in Bronze® memorial. With the ability to be highly personalized, Expressions in Bronze

tells the story of a loved one’s life to share with future generations. Developed by in-house artists who combine molten bronze and specialized technology with original photographs, the result is a unique bronze memorial that is as individual as the people and places it pays tribute to. In addition to Expressions in Bronze, unique bronze memorials and bronze niche plaques were displayed.

The booth also exhibited Cold Spring Memorial Group’s Personal Reflections® Online Memorial Selection System. Developed to help families choose a memorial, attendees were offered demonstrations

The ICCFA’s (International Cemetery, Cremation and Funeral Association) convention was held at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, March 19-22. With over 500 exhibitors and thousands of visitors, this was the most attended ICCFA conference in the past three years.

showing how customers can experiment with different options and combinations, allowing them to visualize the product, make revisions and better streamline the process of helping a family choose a lasting tribute for their loved one.

Furthermore, a product recently introduced by Cold Spring Memorial Group, the Bronze Butterfly was presented with a KIP (Keeping it Personal) award Honorable Mention, recognizing the best in personalization in the cemetery, funeral service and cremation process.

Cold Spring Memorial Group’s success at the ICCFA was a testament to the company’s many valued customers. Appreciating the many compliments received on their bronze quality, delivery and customer care support, among others, it is because of them and the 500+ exhibitors, attendees and individuals that Cold Spring Memorial Group will remain committed to providing the type of products that continue to render such a wonderful response. Founded in 1887, the ICCFA is the only international trade association representing all segments of the cemetery, cremation funeral and memorialization industry.
