Larina & Rick Potter - Casper Monuments & Rick’s Rocks
For nearly a century, Casper Monuments has been a cornerstone in the community, helping families memorialize their loved ones with dignity, care and a deeply personal touch. Owned by Rick and Larina Potter, this family-run business is rooted in both tradition and artistry that blends generations of craftsmanship with heartfelt service.
Rick’s journey with monument engraving began when he was just 11 years old. What started as a youthful introduction turned into a lifelong calling. Today, Rick is more than a monument engraver; he’s a freehand artist. While many in the industry rely on computers to generate designs, Rick takes a different path. Each piece of custom artwork is drawn by hand, making every monument or engraved stone a meaningful tribute. “We don’t believe in computers for custom artwork,” Rick shares. “Everything is drawn by me, the artist. That’s what makes us unique.”
At the heart of Casper Monuments is a simple yet powerful mission: to bring a little happiness to people, even during life’s most difficult moments. Whether it’s crafting a beautiful headstone or engraving a custom rock for a special gift, Rick and Larina take care of people in a way that’s personal, compassionate and authentic. Their work isn’t about solving problems. It’s about honoring lives, capturing memories and creating something that lasts. That’s why families in Casper continue to turn to them generation after generation.
Rick and Larina define success by the impact they make through the heartfelt connections with families, the stories etched into every stone and the steady pace of a business built on compassion and craftsmanship. As they look to the future, Rick and Larina plan to keep doing what they love: serving the community with the same heart, talent and dedication that’s defined Casper Monuments since 1924.
