Found in the Willow Wild Cemetery, Bonham, TX.
"I didn't know the heart could hurt this grievously, Eldon."
"Yes, my dearest. But we shall ensure that, though no one had time to know her, no one will forget her."
"That quenches the grief as a teacup of water quenches a housefire."
"I'm sorry. There is so little we can do, but we can do this."
"And the stone will let people know that she was alive, however briefly."
"Yes."
"And that we loved her, however briefly."
"Yes."
"This little beacon of stone, carved as deep as our love, will stand and glow with our love, forever."
"Forever."
