Bronze plaque in kirkyard

'Bronze plaque in the St Nicolas Kirkyard, East Holm.
The triangle looks like a masonic symbol - any ideas?
It dates from the late 19th century.'

Comments:
It could be masonic, but more likely is being used here to represent Heaven.

Trinity symbol - father, son, spirit, probably the most likely indeed Marlene. The masonic symbol, as on the US dollar bill has an eye inside the triangle.
