Expired Parking Meter Tombstone

Parking meter tombstone in Okemah, OK for my mom, Barbara Sue Manire, 1941-2005.

Mom always wanted a parking meter on her grave with the words "time expired." She died exactly on her 64th birthday, so my brother had special stickers made that read: "64 year time limit."
