Three Generations of Excellence

Our family’s experience providing funeral directors and monument builders with ongoing, consistent lettering and cemetery monument services started three generations ago with our grandfather, Earl Fischer. After he built a name for himself throughout Iowa and the midwest, our father, Dan Nelson, took on the family business and trained a new crew, armed with the skills and necessary attention to fine detail that had been instilled by his father-in-law.

As our family’s heritage and knowledge within the cemetery industry continues from generation to generation, our newest continuation within the industry is Legacy Lettering, owned by Dan’s son-in-law, Mike Poggensee…though the approach remains the same: We treat each and every job, no matter how big or small, as if we were doing it for our own family member.
