This is purely speculation, but I think there's something about just showing the grave of his mother. Don't ask me to explain, but I think it's very possibly more effective than having Arathorn's grave alongside it.
Of course, for me as a book fan, the scene reminds me of that one memorable line from her, that Elrond and Aragorn repeat in ROTK: "I gave Hope to the Dunedain; I kept none for myself."
