  3. Wow, the engraving seems so crisp and clean after all these years. I've seen much newer stones with more deterioration. I hope it lasts many more years!

  4. Thanks all. This person is not from my family but my husband has some ancestors buried here. I was impressed by the stone as you all are!!

    I want to figure out which kind of stone lasts the longest so when it's my turn ... I don't want anyone forgetting me :-)
