Ewing - Willow Wild Cemetery - Bonham, TX - Woodmen of the World Grave Markers/Monuments on Waymarking.com

This is an interesting arch headstone whose cap joins the married couple, and the Woodmen emblem is on that cap. The family name, "Ewing", is on the plinth, and since this is a Woodmen of the World monument, Mr. Ewing was the member. The inscription is:
