ABSTRACT:
A grave marker and grave marker footing leveling device is described, in which an elongated threaded rod is provided with a tool engagement head at a top end. A footing lifting abutment is located on the rod spaced toward the bottom rod end. A nut is threadably engaged with the threads and is spaced toward the bottom end of the rod from the abutment. A tubular spike rotatably receives and covers an axial length of the rod from the nut to the bottom end of the rod. In a preferred process step, the rod is placed in position within an excavation including a footing depression and a sub-footing depression. Wet concrete fills the sub-footing depression up to a level at which the nut on the device is captured. An impervious sheet is spread over the wet concrete in the sub-footing, before the grave marker and footing are set. In alternate forms the device is provided individually, as an element in a combination with a grave marker and footing.
