To set a headstone, begin by selecting an appropriate location and ensuring the ground is level. Dig a hole slightly larger than the base of the headstone, then place a layer of gravel or sand at the bottom for drainage. Position the headstone upright in the hole, ensuring it is straight and secure, and then backfill with soil, compacting it around the base. Finally, double-check the alignment and adjust as necessary before finishing the surrounding area.
Anyone can set a headstone if allowed by the cemetary, so you will need to check with their rules. Some require liability insurance and others mandate you must use their people per their rules and regulations (perpetual care cemetaries usually do not allow anyone to set a stone/memorial unless they are insured and bonded). This is not a simple task, but at the same time, it's not hard either if you know what you're doing.
There is no requirement for you to be there when the workman set the stone.

A headstone should typically face east for proper placement and significance.
On a headstone, "aft" typically refers to the rear or back side, while "ca" is an abbreviation for "circa," meaning "approximately" when referring to dates. For example, a headstone might have inscriptions indicating the birth year as "ca 1850," suggesting that the date is an approximation. These terms help provide context and details about the individual commemorated on the headstone.
