Mrs. Yosemite

Here are some funny tombstone pictures. Can you think of any funny phrases or last words to put on a tombstone? (I was thinking about putting something comical on mine)  Maybe not.

I went to a museum that had an exhibit of tombstones with funny sayings. It was awsome. The room was dark, had black walls, fake spider webs all over and tombstones to read. I wrote some of the funnier sayings down.

Here lies Lester Moore; Four slugs from a .44; No Les No More.
-- Tombstone Arizona

John Brown is filling his last cavity.
-- Dentist's Tombstone

The I told ya I was sick was on a tombstone from Georgia

Here lies the body of Jonathan Blake; Stepped on the gas instead of the brake.
-- Pennsylvania Tombstone, USA

Tricia Lea

Heres  a good one

Once there was a boy named Odd.
Odd was the brunt of jokes his whole life, because of his name, even though he grew up to be a successful lawyer. When Odd was old and about to die, he said, "People have been teasing me my whole life, and I don't want them doing it after I am dead, so I don't want my name printed on my tombstone."
After Odd died, people saw his blank tombstone and said, "That's odd!

Stranger tread
This ground with gravity.
Dentist Brown
Is filling his last cavity.


Here Lies Jane Smith
Wife of Thomas Smith
Marble Cutter:
This Monument Erected
By Her Husband
As A Tribute
To Her Memory.
Monuments of this style
are 250 Dollars.


Effie Jean Robinson
1897-1922
Come blooming youths,
as you pass by ,
And on these lines do cast an eye.
As you are now, so once was I;
As I am now, so must you be;
Prepare for death and follow me.
Upon which someone scribbled:
To follow you
I am not content,
How do I know
Which way you went.


Here lies Johnny Cole.
Who died upon my soul
After eating a plentiful dinner.
While chewing his crust
He was turned into dust
With his crimes undigested -
poor sinner.


Bill Blake
Was hanged by mistake.


Here lays Butch.
We planted him raw.
He was quick on the trigger
But slow on the draw.

I always liked reading old tombstones and stuff.  I use to visit the Halloween websites quite frequently.   

The Purple Fuzzy

LAST WORDS
Gravestone epitaph:
Here lies the body of Solomon Peas,
Under the daisies and under the trees.
Peas is not here, only the pod.
Peas shelled out, went home to God!

Brother Dad

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Sis

I loved the one that said, "I told you I was sick!"

We are going to Ruidoso for church camp in July! I wanna find that tombstone!

The Purple Fuzzy

Tombstone verse in an English cemetery:

Remember man, as you walk by,
As you are now, so once was I
As I am now, so shall you be.
Remember this and follow me.

To which someone replied by writing on the tombstone:

To follow you I'll not consent.
Until I know which way you went.

My friend's mom had a salt and pepper shaker set that was a tray with two tombstones on it. Together they read:

Ma loved Pa
Pa loved wimmin
Ma caught Pa
with two in swimmin
Here lies Pa
