Book of John (John 15:13) - Pleasant Mound "Public" Cemetery - Dallas, TX - Etched in Stone on Waymarking.com

The quote is verbatim from the King James Bible, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." The memorial itself describes itself as an "open Bible". Its shape betrays that it's basically a headstone that might have marked a grave, with the outline of a book and pages to enclose the text, which reads:

This open Bible marker is laid in memory of all soldiers, known & unknown, who are buried in this 128 year old cemetery which is designated as a State Historical Site in honor of the 200th birthday of this great nation.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:13
