This family is buried in a curbed plot, with "Spitzer" on a granite step at the entrance. All three share a headstone, with Mr. and Mrs. Spitzer listed on the front, and Dorathy Mae on the reverse. The family initial, "S", is at the top on each side, and "Spitzer" is on the reverse plinth. As there is a Woodmen of the World emblem on the front right, Mr. Spitzer was the member of the organization, and the inscriptions read:
