W. E. Shelton's headstone is a traditional Woodmen of the World tree stump marker. It stands on a base with the surname SHELTON, which is partially buried in the ground. The inscription is engraved on a scroll which hangs by a rope. An engraved granite dove is sitting at the top of the scroll. Above this are the crossed implements common to Woodmen of the World monuments.
