Gracelawn Cemetery was established in the late 1800s and contains many burials of early pioneer settlers. The cemetery is owned and managed by the City of Edmond. The headstone was found on the southwest edge of the cemetery.
The headstone has an etched drawing of a small, private aircraft with the inscription reading:
FRANK T.
