Interestingly, this one is of marble, with an inscription done by hand. Most of the lettering is what one would expect, but the family name, "Shrum," is not simple scratch: Someone put a little work into making it stand out. "Grandpa" and "Jim" flank the family name, and the inscription is:

Shrum

Barely visible are what appears to be two pistols, pointing at each other, and a cowboy hat.
