Not necessarily, Long_Silence. It's fairly common for families to have shared plots, especially if they're cremated. My mother and aunt are buried in the same spot as my grandparents (from my father's side), and their headstone has room for several more. Most of the stones that I've seen in our cemetery are like ours--with whole families carved on one stone.

The only thing I find odd about this is the design.The group stones I've seen have couples side by side, not offset like they are here with Peter's father in the center and his wife at an angle to him.
And the font is waaaay to big for a headstone that is obviously intended to have multiple people on it.

There's no room for Mays' name to be carved next to Ben. I suppose they could put her below him, but that would really look bad when compared to Pete's Parents (or rather, vice versa), and funeral homes usually have enough sense to suggest a more unified design.
