One of two homemade headstones here in the graveyard at Prospect Church for the McDavid family appear to be made by the same maker. Both have a star at the top and are made from poured concrete with recessed lettering pressed into the surface, even the lettering appears homemade, and both have a similar religious message on them and the same five pointed star.

Marker text:

"Our loved one" over a five pointed star.
