    Hi Chris, this is a version of Condensed Roman (likely the Spacerite alphabet), which has been modified to emulate memorial designer Gene Brusetti’s custom roman lettering style. The more squared-off ovals of the curved letters, and the extension of the crossbar to the left side of the letter of ‘A’, ‘H’, and often ‘E/F’, are typical of his style.

    Brusetti was head designer of Rock of Ages for many years, and many of the designs he drew for the company were graced with his signature roman style.

    The Monument Lettering Center has plans to create a font based on Gene’s lettering, but it may be several years before it is completed. Feel free to utilize the Inscription Matching Service if you’d like help matching it: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/cemetery-inscription-matching-service/
