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.
