What do you want your tombstone to say?

So… I’ve been out to the cemetery to take a look at our family plot. Great Grandma bought it years and years ago. Some of our clan are buried there; some chose to have their final resting place somewhere else.

Grandma got a great deal on our plot. Maybe it’s because we are right off a road that has a lot of traffic. Dad always said that he liked the thought of being able to wave at all of the traffic. Well, one more widening of the street and he will be in the traffic.

Anyway, I was looking at some of the grave markers. This is an older cemetery; there are both above ground markers, and the kind that are almost level on the ground. And some of them have pretty interesting messages on them. My favorite is, “Peaches, she was quite a dog.” Huh? This is a people cemetery, not a doggie one. Then again, maybe the message was about a human.

So this got me to thinking, what I would like my tombstone to read. Have you ever given any thought about yours or have you seen any interesting or humorous epitaphs?

Yeah, I know this is a weird topic. Humor me.
