Did you know that brass nameplates on headstones are being stolen for the brass scrap value?   

Who would accept this for scrap and melt it without question? There is a communist country that would, and is doing so. You know the one in Asia. Next time you see their name on a product, remember this. 

How would you feel when visiting your loved one’s gravesite, you found it stolen?Bryce's Grandson's Headstone

It felt bittersweet when we got an order for our screws to go to a mausoleum company. Traditionally, drilled spanner security screws have been used, but they no longer perform and prevent theft. I know Key-Rex® will stop grave nameplates from being stolen, but sad it came to this. May the sacred always stay sacred
