I came across this pair yesterday. I just thought they were so beautiful. How Mary Hudson has the extra flowers on her stone and I am not sure what the symbol means on Andrew's stone. If anyone has ever seen that before and has any idea what it is, I would love to know. I also like the words on Andrew's "We shall meet to part no more"
Hi Pat - Those are indeed lovely headstones!
ReplyDeleteIf you mean the symbol "IOOF" and the rings on Andrew's headstone, it stand for "Independent Order of Odd Fellows." Generally, inside the 3 rings are the letters FLT, which stand for Friendship, Love, and Truth, but Andrew's don't appear to have the letters. You can find out more about the IOOF at http://www.ioof.org/.
