      Military stone: US Navy, WWII. Wife had a stone made up the same next to him, Judith Ann, she is still living in 2003. Beautiful poem carved above their stones: Her true love has her heart and she has his; by just exchange one for the Other given; she holds his dear and hers he cannot miss, there never was a better bargain driven. And Death shall never end their love, for it was meant to be; he takes her heart, and she takes his throughout All Eternity.
