Both headstones are approximately the same size, almost but not exactly square. Charles's headstone has a slight angle to it, with a simple inscription:
Infant
Charles Boen
Feb. 18, 1932
Voy Lee's headstone is more flush with the ground, with this inscription:
Voy Lee
Boen
Oct. 1908
Dec. 1931
There is no indication as to the relationship, but they are probably father and son. Notable, Mr. Boen's Findagrave entry refers to his death certificate, indicating that he was born on October 31, 1907 -- not 1908 -- and died December 24, 1933 -- not 1931. His wife's name was Virginia.
