Can be engraved. Signing: Specifically refers to the person who funded the construction of this tomb. Even if the investor is the owner of the tomb, it is also appropriate to write the names of his children and grandchildren. Common ones are: "filial man so-and-so, so-and-so, so-and-so, grandson so-and-so, So-and-so, so-and-so, stand respectfully."
If there is no son but only a daughter, write "filial daughter so-and-so, so-and-so, so-and-so, granddaughter so-and-so, so-and-so, so-and-so, stand respectfully", and the inscription position is two-thirds of the way to the left. When writing, the font size is generally the same as the date. There should be a space before "respectfully". The surname should be omitted before the name of the descendant. However, if the grandson has a different surname, his surname should be written.

The basic composition of tombstone inscriptions.
1. Header:
The header mainly writes the deceased’s position, occupation, birthday and death date (that is, the date of birth and death, usually using the lunar calendar, which represents tradition, and is also useful Gregorian calendar, determined by the person who erected the monument) and place of birth.
2. Text:
Generally, in a cemetery, a husband and wife share the same grave, and the names of the two tomb owners are written. Old-fashioned graves only write the husband's name, and the wife only writes the surname, and most of them are not centered. Written on the left side only; in modern tombstones, husband and wife are arranged side by side, with the man on the right and the woman on the left.
It is usually written like this: "Loving father, so-and-so, Gong, so-and-so, worthy of such-and-such longevity domain (or tomb)" 12 characters are arranged in two columns, and the word "Shou domain" must be longer than the other characters. It is twice as big and placed in the middle of the left and right columns.
