Here is the marker for the graves of Leonas "Leo" Radauskas (1889-1973) and his wife Ona "Anna" Tamošiūnaite Radauskas Marcinkus (1907-1988), at St. Casimir [Lithuanian] Catholic Cemetery in Chicago, Illinois:
There are two other names engraved on the stone. On the far right, it says "Agota Zakaras 1902-". This was supposed to be for Leonas' sister Agota "Agnes" Radauskas Phillips Zaker (1902-1980), but she is buried in the same cemetery next to her second husband.
The other name, on the far left, is "Justin Kiskunas 1892-1978." He was buried in the plot on February 13, 1978, with "o.t. [one-time?] permit #161," according to the burial record available at FamilySearch.org. That record shows only that his home address was Toronto, Canada. Some Canadian records at Ancestry.com (not fully accessible to me, since I don't have a world membership there) indicate that he was living in Ontario province in 1972.
My third cousin Osvaldas Guokas discovered a birth record for Justinas Kiškūnas that proves he is Ona's uncle, younger brother to Ona's mother, Agota Kiškūnaitė (born about 1875). They were both children of Baltramiejus Kiškūnas and Ona Dzinkus Kiškūnienė.

The words "Ilsekis Ramybeje" at the bottom of the cross are Lithuanian for "Rest in Peace." Here are photos of the engravings for Leonas and Ona at the base of the stone:
