I believe the pebbles are a Jewish custom.
A Jewish brother of my lodge passed, and his relatives places small stones on the gravestone.
I inquired of one of them the meaning at a later time, and was told that it meant "I remember you.", or something along those lines.
The movies "Schindler's List" and "Bullet" (with Mickey Rourke) both have this tradition.
Perhaps a cellarite who's more acquainted with Jewish tradition could explain it better........
