This is a picture of my father's marker at Montecito Cemetery in San Bernardino CA.
I took it on May 5, 
2002. He was killed in an auto accident in Idaho in 1962. I have no other info
beyond this.

He is buried next to his father Floyd White Farrar.
The inscription reads:

In Loving Memory
Floyd W. Farrar Jr. BM (B2)
1916 (USN Seabee Emblem) 1962


Additional Comments:
Apparently when the marker was placed the info given to the maker didn't explain
what BM (B2) meant. It 
refers to his US Navy rate. He was Boatswain's Mate Second Class and that is what is
on his discharge 
papers I have in my possession. The B2 refers to the secondary unit he was attached
to in Korea in 1950, it 
was a stevedore unit and was referred to as B2.
