Most modern family mausoleums are made of Vermont gray granite from the Barre Vermont area. They are then crafted into pieces for assembly at the cemetery site. Until the development of railroads, it was impossible to transport the large blocks of granite these structures are made of. Ironically, here in Vermont, we are going the opposite direction, and it is now possible to compost a body into nutrient rich soil. Bones are ground up and added to the mix. So Tony, if you choose to build yourself a fancy mausoleum, maybe I can fertilize the plants around it.
I read the other day NY I think it was passed legislation to permit composting. The granite for my monument came from VT also. Rock of Ages Bethel white granite. You rarely see one done in that granite color. It almost looks like white marble. I have funds set aside for a matching grave ledger. Rock of Ages pours 3 footings for those down to the top of the vault to keep it in place. Less settling issues. Since I have no vault it has to wait. The ledger like my parents just has the last name engraved and a wreath.
Wonderful wandering!! T.Y. Tony
Always a great visit and stories. Your dedication (going out in the rain!) is much appreciated.
Glad you enjoy it!
The most unusual mausoleum is the "Blue Sky" mausoleum designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in Buffalo's Forest Lawn.
Rise and shine! Good morning T
Morning!
I love seeing mausoleums they are a piece of art to me. Thank you, Tony, for the tour and information on the cost.
Wow...very very very cool
THANK YOU
Thank you
That’s a lot of money, I wonder what kind of home they had? Yes, they should restore the old Mausoleum, the people in there paid to be taken care of.
5 million dollars huh?! There's no way I could rest in peace spending that kind of money for a mini mansion to decompose away in knowing there's homeless people going hungry & sleeping on the streets.
So true Bob G
The local Rock of Ages dealer rep told me they built a family mausoleum at Peoria, IL recently for about $1.2 million. I forget how many crypts it has. From the photo's it was larger than the first one in your video. The one in your video is almost like the one for Leona Helmsley. There is a video on CZcams about hers. Granite isn't cheap. I know I paid a lot for my parents huge monument and ledger. I wanted a single lawn mausoleum crypt but the cemetery wouldn't permit it. You need to leave a maintenace fund for a mausoleum. Leona Helmsley left something like $3 million for a yearly cleaning and maintenance.
You have that , then you have Dave Thomas from Wendy’s. In a simple indoor wall interment by one of the mausoleum exits.
“Big Urn” haha. Big Ern.
Good morning and good day!!! What an awesome video and key information. Mausoleums are expensive as hell but it definitely beats going in the ground.
Good morning! Thank you!
your Great!!!
Amazing! Happy 2023, Tony 💜
Happy 2023!
The one with the horse shoes I wonder if thats their favorite horse.🙂that stained glass was awesome I didn't even see the big urn. Watch out for the bomb cyclone. Stay safe❤️
I found out later they owned a racehorse.
Thank you for the price reveal! Always fascinating to find out the cost of these amazing monuments and mausoleums🪦
Happy New Year and I loved all 4 family mausoleums thanks for walking for me
I wish I had a nice $2.5 million mausoleum, nice chairs inside for people to visit.
I love informative videos just as this one. Thank you, Tony.
My pleasure!
Upon doing a little research, Paul Kalmanovitz was worth $250 million upon his death. Roughly. So $5 to $8 million for the resting the place was nothing to this guy. Wish I had that problem!!
Haha me too 😉
After picking my jaw up off the floor over the price for the land and mausoleum 😮 what a lovely cemetery and interesting talk u gave us” Thankyou 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
❤️
At-- 8:47 -- Short story: In London (England) in the 1800's, the water table's changed on a hill hill where a big cemetery is....the water broke through to the towns main drinking water & contaminated the twons drinking water.
To this day, you can see the what was back then a main fountain where folks & animals go stick & many folks & animals died from drinking, cooking, bathing in water that had come from that cemetery.
The big red pump is still there, locked with a chain or whatever.
We don't have that many mausoleums around here in Wisconsin, I wonder why some states have them, some states few and some states none.. there lovely but way to expensive for my blood, I'm going out cheap, cremation is my way to go out and save money for the Family left behind.. 🤗 Tony, thank you from Wisconsin ❤️😙
Money/cost is the biggest reason. Down here in IL the price on just a simple no frill 1 person lawn crypt mausoleum will set you back about $25K. Most cemeteries down here won't allow them. Maintenace and vandalism are the primary reasons. Not only do you have to pay for the crypt for $25K you have to get someone to lay a massive block of concrete 36 inches deep at least for the foundation. Plus pay someone to dig the hole also. The local Rock of Ages rep told me in NY out east it wasn't uncommon to build 1 a month. Wealthy NY eastern people I guess. I lived in the Brookfield WI area for a few years around 2010. Milwaukee has some huge cemeteries I recall seeing.
For 5 million you would have thought it would have better drainage
Wow I had no idea that is crazy!! I knew they were expensive but not that much 😱 Very interesting thanks for sharing!! Happy New Year 🎉
$5 million that's just crazy 🤪
The tour guide had his info just a tad off - the pineapple is a sign of hospitality! I was forced to learn that shifty piece of info from working at a Super 8 motel. God I hated that place...
Thanks for ur videos
I calculated from say 1987 to today 1 million than is about 2.6 million today
Interesting I enjoyed the video
That's insane to Imagine paying that much for land, to build a huge mausoleum and when the money could go to a better use.
Happy 😊 New Year Tony! I wish you a great 2023! Five million dollars in the
1980s? It makes me wonder how much
It will cost forty years from now. That mausoleum with the flooding problem?
I remember that mausoleum from one
Of your prior visits. I still think there is a
Broken sprinkler pipe causing the problem. Do you remember how old
The mausoleum is? Thank you again Tony, great video.
Think about the caskets 'buried', kept stacked on the shelves, the caskets are tilted, so when the seals on the caskets fail the fluid rolls backward & down a pipe (s) and it goes right into the soil.
Wouldn't you think it could eventually make it's way into a water system & effect the wildlife & also humans? Like what happened in England way back?
Sure we have water /plants= the whole bit to 'clean water'... but what about forests, walking trails, & streams... 'IF'...'BUT IF'... that cemetery water got into streams/lakes?🤔
I’d be mad if my parents built a huge and expensive mausoleum like this and didn’t make a space for me! 😂
Are there only two people in the first mausoleum you showed?
There’s so many plants in there that’s what it looked like, but I think in the very back there was an urn.
@@CryptDoor They didn't have children Tony, but really doted on their pets. I looked into this one yonks ago, after you first showed us. Deb.
Imagine what that money could have done to help people in need oh well not my money so but still beautiful
Het Tony had enough rain yet?
Haha. Yeah, but it’s getting ready to start back up.
Lately I've wondered why we are so fascinated by mausoleums. They are the most interesting of all burial places along with columbariums, at least to me. It's not the cost, nor the recognition they bring to a life after-the-fact. Any ideas?
Do you know what, I really don’t know what it is maybe it’s because they’re like small palaces.
I find them creepy, not very practical, subject to vandalism, and they interfere with the overall plan that we come from dust and return to dust. Those who had them constructed seek to impress their associates. But once everyone who knew them is dead, they just sit there and eventually fall apart and are vandalized.
Rich really knows how to waste money! That 5 million could have fed many people!
