Got any humorous or unusual things you'd like to have on your tombstone?

Question

And I don't mean pizza. lol I've always wanted to have mine say something more than just my name and birth/death dates. Something that would be unique, maybe say something about who I am, or what I did. Or something funny, a poem, maybe advice to the living. Something that would make people go hmmmm......... Got any thoughts on the matter?

Answer 1

I know a couple of good historical ones, although I can't remember whose they were. One guy put "All in all, I'd rather be in Philadelphia" on his. Another one I read about said, "Here lies the body of [name here]. If not, notify Smith & Smith, undertakers, immediately!"

As for poems, the best one I ever heard was "Listen, stranger, passing by; As you are, so once was I. As I am, so will you be; Prepare, therefore, to follow me." That one's from a long time ago when everybody was really religious.

I like the suggestion of "WOW! That was AWESOME!"
