Timothy Rolf, Owner

Established 1895

Rolf Monument Co is the premier craftsmen of custom memorials, we’ll explain the process to you and be here for you every step of the way. 

From the initial design all the way to the crafting of the memorial itself, our top-notch workmanship and unparalleled attention to detail sets us apart. 

Current Owner

Tim Rolf has been filling the shoes of the four men before him since 1984. This is a family that may not be famous by name but their work can be seen throughout the Tri-State area. 

Recent work includes Fairfield’s Veterans Park, Newport City Building, the 911 Memorial at the Peace Bell, the Northern Kentucky Firefighters Memorial. However, the most famous work is the headstone that was in the movie Rain Man.

The Mascot

Duke adopted Tim when Duke was a pup and didn’t have a name or a home. He wondered into the Rolf Monument shop in Newport’s west end one day and has stayed for the last twelve years. Tim takes him everywhere. By day Duke is there comforting clients. By night he is the king of naps. 

Latest Client Note.

My husband's headstone in now set in place and looks exactly as promised. The assistance provided and advice given when I ordered it was greatly appreciated. The stone looks perfect in every way. As a family, we have used Rolf Monument for many years and I highly recommend them and their thoughtful service. Thank you for all your kindness.
