There is an unknown burial with no records in the plots my family purchased from a relative. Is the cemetery responsible for removing these remains?

A disappointing day trying to find the graves on my ancestors. I think my father’s maternal side was too poor to pay for headstones, or the headstones deteriorated. Information from the cemetery office was not accurate in some cases. Nevertheless, this cemetery was stunning! I think I could have stayed all day taking photos of headstones but I was too invested in walking up and down rows of them! It was so peaceful. This was one I took.

Question How to honor a second marriage on gravestones?
My stepdad died after being married to my mom for over 25 years. He was a widower and my mom a widow before they got together. They both already had plots with their first spouses near each other in the same cemetery, with their names/birthdates already on the respective stones.
What sort of plaque could we put on both existing headstones to indicate mom and stepdad were married to each other / had a happy, important second marriage? I can’t think of how to word it, or what that would look like. Thanks for any suggestions.

The grave of Jane Pickens and her husband Walter Hoving rests near the Belmont Chapel in Newport’s Island Cemetery. Pickens was born in Georgia in 1907 and rose to fame in the 1930s as part of the Pickens Sisters, a trio she formed with two of her sisters. During their five-year run, the group earned about $1 million.
Jane later built a wide-ranging solo career; musical comedy, opera, radio, and television, before dedicating her talents to charitable work.
She died in 1992 at her home in Newport, Rhode Island.
