Floral wreaths stand amidst grave markers written in Chinese for the Quon & Lim funeral. Flowers and a white ribbon and bow decorate the portrait of the deceased, a white-haired man dressed in a tunic. The plaques in front of the portrait read, R to L, Huang Chuanchang and Zhang Longyu, both from Taishan Xian, Guangdong Sheng, China. The plaques are read vertically. The first column names the county that the deceased was from; the second gives the deceased's name; the third lists the district in the county that the deceased was from. Photo dated: Sep. 10, 1941.
