The readable text on Sidney's grave has the following information:

Sidney W. Saunders
1846-1889
Is it in heaven a crime to love too well? To bear too tender or too firm a heart?


From the Roadside America website:

Sidney Saunders Statue

This statue was placed atop Sidney Saunders burial vault by his questionable wife, holding a copy of their marriage certificate, as supposed proof that they were actually married. She had the statue facing downtown, toward the naysayers' homes, where he could stare at them for eternity.
