Second date

The death date added to a headstone after a person dies, when the stone already shows their name and birth date from a prior installation. Adding a second date is the most common reason families engage a monument dealer post-funeral. Most second dates are sandblasted in place at the cemetery, take an hour or so to cut, and cost between $150 and $450 depending on stone material and font.
