For Frederick Peter Gaghan (1895–1970)

GAGHAN / In Loving Memory / of / FREDERICK PETER / Beloved husband of Isabel / Loving father of / James, John, Barbara and Frederick. / Passed away 8th December 1970, aged 74 years. / Also ISABEL AGNES / Beloved wife & mother of above / Passed away 10th January 1987, aged 85 years. / Forever in our hearts / R.I.P.

Corroborates the existing death date 8 Dec 1970. NOT changed: the stone's 'aged 74' implies a birth year one year later than the tree's uncited 28 Jun 1895 (which would make him 75 at death) — flagged for a moderator, not altered.
