What would you like on your gravestone (lighthearted)

[PoodlesRUs]

Lighthearted (or not as the case may be!) - what epitaph do you fancy?

"An absolute marvel with a mango", just to perplex passing dog-walkers, meanderers and other visitors 😀

It's too peopley down here.

My name
Dates

She loved her kids
She loved her husband.
She gave no fucks and took no prisoners.

(its taken me so long to get to this point that that’s what I want! I’m sending this to DH now 😂)

I always joke with DH his should say

I wasn't finished.

As he starts a task and wanders off for days never to be seen again

“Let ‘er rip.”

(stolen from Leslie Nielsen, brilliant)

Or
“Lights out, night night, mind the bed bugs don’t bite.”

Which is what my mum said to me every night for 18 years and always helps me sleep well when i remind myself.

This always amused me:

"She didn't like any of you anyway"

(I said this once and my friend offered to announce it at my funeral 😂)

'Raised three beautiful daughters with only one bathroom. And still there was love'

So long, and thanks for all the fish.

My friend wrote me a card that said something along the lines of ‘I love you because you’re just the right amount of got it together and fucked up’. I thought it summed me up perfectly!

Thin at last!

"Ah!!... Skeletons!!"

I’m in hell
We’re having the party to end all parties
Come join us when you’re ready 😄

I'll borrow one that I saw at Elgin Cathedral, which is one of the most interesting graveyards I have been to, and has many interesting epitaphs. I don't remember the exact wording, but it was something like, "Lost in a tempest on the way to China." It sounds so romantic and adventurous, though I'm sure that it was actually terrifying!

Thanks for visiting, please fuck off by 9

This hole is empty...I got cremated.

“Mum finally got her 5 minutes of peace”🤣 or “MUUUUUUUUUMMMMMM…….”

Thanks, there's some great ones here and I'm enjoying the laugh.

No idea for me but I read a marvellously descriptive one the other day: "Unfortunately blown up at sea". Sad tale, relatively common for this town but bugger me if it didn't make me chuckle.

How do you do it ? said night
How do you get up and shine?
I keep it simple said light
One day at a time

Finally...I can rest in peace!

No ideas yet but when at the burial of my late and lovely MIL, I looked at gravestone nearby that had "What a Life!!" on it, memorialising a woman who died at a ripe age.

Not waving, but drowning (Stevie Smith)

No idea on my gravestone but I love this memorial bench! 🤣

Pedestrians have right of way

I want this!

'terrible when hungry but otherwise lovely'

I will have very tiny writing on my gravestone and when people get close to read it a hand will shoot out from the base and grab their ankle.

My children are refusing to do this for me as they say they will be sued when people fall over in fright. But I think it would be brilliant 😂
