Headstone Oddities

I think we've all encountered a strange-looking headstone at one time or another while cemetery-hopping.  If you have a photo of a headstone oddity you'd like to see here, send it to me at [email protected] for posting on this page.
Don't forget your camera the next time you're out tromping around in a cemetery!
