Tombstone Tuesday -- Jewell

This is the headstone of my Step Dad Gary Jewell Born 17 Apr 1947 and died 19 June 2002.  He is buried at Valley Memorial Gardens in Novato California

Etched onto the stone is a quote from a Dream Theater song; "The Spirit Carries On" which we heard in his truck just days after he passed away.

This picture was drawn by my sister and etched onto the stone.  It shows our stepdad doing his favorite activity....walking his beloved dogs Emma and Marley who have since joined him in heaven.
