Male and Female Headstones

Star of David appears on a male headstone

Star of David appears on a male headstone, and a Menorah on a female headstone at the Dallas Jewish cemetery.

I read that the appearance of the Menorah on female headstones is connected to the verse from Proverbs 20:27 "The spirit of man is the LORD 's lamp".
