Here is a cemetery headstone with a built in ashtray:

In ashtray?  ??? To me an ashtray is where you put the ashes of a cigarette.

Exactly. I think this head stone was intended to have a pot of flowers in this spot, but for some reason insted there is a can full of sand, ready for someone to put out a cigarette.

Maybe it symbolizes "I want you to come back to me." That would be a sweet sentiment.

Like the song -- "Tie a Yellow Ribbon
".
"Gettin' tired of your dumbass missin'!"

Lumberjack?

He was maybe a lumberjack like one of my grand-fathers?
