About Borth Memorials

Honoring Legacies Since 1992

Borth Memorials was founded on a simple principle: to help families create lasting tributes that honor the lives of those they love. Since opening our doors in 1992, we’ve proudly served Southern Minnesota with high-quality custom monuments, personalized headstones, and compassionate service rooted in family values.



As a family-owned and operated business, we understand how personal and emotional the memorial process can be. That’s why we take time with every customer — listening closely, offering guidance, and helping turn memories into meaningful, lasting designs.

Serving Families Across Southern Minnesota

From our headquarters in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, we are honored to serve families throughout the surrounding communities — including New Ulm, Hutchinson, Willmar, Marshall, Redwood Falls, Mankato, and beyond.


We work closely with area cemeteries and churches to ensure your chosen memorial meets all requirements for materials, size, placement, and installation. Our team is happy to manage these details for you and communicate directly with cemetery staff when needed.

Where Tradition Meets Craftsmanship

Over the past three decades, Borth Memorials has become known for our commitment to quality materials, expert engraving, and personalized service. Every memorial we create is handcrafted with care and precision, using time-tested techniques and modern tools that ensure clarity, detail, and durability.


Our on-site team specializes in custom sandblasting, shape carving, etching, and granite finishing. Whether you're creating a simple marker or a multi-piece monument, you can trust that your project is being handled with respect, skill, and attention to every detail.



We are proud to offer the largest indoor monument display in Southern Minnesota, allowing families to view and compare granite types, styles, shapes, and finishes year-round in a comfortable setting.

A Personal Approach to Memorial Design

At Borth Memorials, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all memorials. Every life is unique — and every memorial should reflect that.



Our team walks alongside you from the first conversation to the final installation. We take time to explain options, offer examples, and help you visualize the finished piece. You’re welcome to meet with us in person at our showroom or begin the process from home using our convenient online design tool.
