ABSTRACT:
A combination grave marker and vase is disclosed. The marker has an enclosure with a top, bottom and four sides. The top has an opening closed by a swinging cover. The cover has a lever with a counterweight. The lever also has an arcuate slot which registers with a slotted member extending generally vertically. An axle on the counterweight engages both the slot in the lever and enclosure. The cover has a receptacle for flowers. When the marker is in use, the cover is opened which will be moved to use position and the flowers can then be placed in the flower receptacle. Since the flower receptacle is integral with the cover, it cannot be craried away and lost. The enclosure top can be flush with the surface of the ground so that it does not interfere with normal cemetery maintenance.
