Stones or Pebbles
STONES OR PEBBLES LEFT ON HEADSTONES - Symbolically, the stones can indicate many things; that love and remembrance are as strong and as lasting as a rock. That as a stone lasts forever, so to does love. Even a symbol that the deceased is with God, since the Old Testament refers to God as our rock. The Jewish tradition of leaving a pebble or stone on top of a headstone signifies that someone has honored the deceased person's memory with a visit to the grave.
(KJV Psalms 18:2) - The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
