The White Bronze or Zinc, memorial for George and William Luse - Greenlawn cemetery, Wingate, IN, USA.

"George W Luse b. March 14, 1861, d. October 15, 1878 aged 17 years, 7 months 1 day
What is the flight of time to man,
Whose soul is of ethereal birth,
Why should he mourn life's transient span,
His rightful home is not on earth."

"William L Luse b. May 5, 1865 d. October 18, 1878, aged 13 year, 5 months, 13 days.
Our Angel brother, thou hast left us,
Thy feet have past the pearly gate,
And we, with weary waiting hearts,
Press onward, where our Brother waits."

This is one of four white bronze headstones in Greenlawn Cemetery. Two of which are for the Luse family.

A weakness that damages these monuments is caused by the pressure from their weight. Zinc has a tendency to creep or bend when it is exposed to pressure over time. There are pictures above showing the bulging at the base of this monument.
