As an aside, may I add that most headstones try to communicate something of the person being memorialized and of the person who placed it. Anthony's stone is a prime example. Notice the hand and foot prints. They were taken from Anthony's hospital certificate and engraved true to life-size at the direction of his mother, Debra, who designed the stone.
