Mr. Simpson's white marble headstone has the family name on the plinth, and there is a photo medallion at the top -- missing the photo -- that is complemented by flourishes. His name stands out in relief, followed by an inscription:

Born May 5, 1896,
Died in Fracne
Nov. 24, 1918.

His toils are past, his work is done,
