Pillow Markers - Hickey Upright Markers

Pillow uprights, commonly referred to as “Hickeys,” are the smallest upright monument style available. Typically, these structures stand between 4 and 6 inches above the ground, making them a modest yet meaningful choice for commemorating loved ones. The design of pillow uprights can vary, featuring either a flat top or a slanted/beveled shape, where the back is elevated while the front gradually descends. This subtle variation in design allows for personalization while maintaining an elegant appearance.

In addition to height and shape, the width and depth of pillow uprights can also differ significantly. These variations are often influenced by budgetary considerations and specific cemetery regulations that govern the types and sizes of monuments allowed. As a result, families can select a pillow upright that fits their aesthetic preferences and adheres to any restrictions imposed by the cemetery, ensuring a respectful and compliant tribute to the deceased. This versatility makes pillow uprights popular for many seeking a balance of simplicity and significance in their memorialization efforts.
