Ivy complements the Woodmen of the World emblem atop the headstone, with the family name, "McCormick" on the plinth, and this inscription:
T.F. McCormick
Born Dec. 19, 1854
Died Oct. 30, 1907.
Farewell, my wife and children all,
From you a father Christ doth call.
His toils are past, his work is done,
He fought the fight, the victory won.
----------
Mr. McCormick was also a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, as noted on the back of the headstone by a medallion with their three chain links. The initials of their motto, "Friendship, Love and Truth", are still faintly legible.
