Thanks for enlarging the photo Hippy. It is a lot bigger than the effort I tried to load up. Much appreciated.

John Laurence Ross died in 1960 aged 82.

Helen Smith Rae died in 1961 aged 82.

John and Helen were the father and mother of Helen Rae Ross. Off to see if I can find the stone tomorrow.

Helen Rae died on 13th August 1961 and John Ross died on 7th March 1960.
Both were aged 82 when they died.
I tried to find Helen's parents to see if they had a headstone. As Andrew Rae died on 18th December 1899 in Camelon and his wife was Mary Connell. But there was no trace of them in the cemetery office records.
John's parents were John Ross and Mary Lawrence. If would have been nice if they did have a stone to photograph.
