This is one of four white bronze headstones in Greenlawn Cemetery.
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 bulging at the base of this monument, caused by that effect, and settlement of the foundation.
