What would you like written on your tombstone?

Here are a few examples of tombstone inscriptions;

"Here lies a man who did no good,

And if he'd lived he never would;

Where he's gone, and how he fares,

Nobody knows and nobody cares."

 

"Gentle reader, gentle reader,

Look on the spot where I do lie,

I always a very good feeder,

But now the worms do feed on I."

 

"Here lies the body of Martha Gwyn,

Who was so very pure within;

She cracked the outer shell of sin,

And hatched herself a cherubim."

 

"Two sweeter babes you ne'er did see —

Than God's grace gave to we;

But they were taken with ague fits,

And here they lie as dead as nits.".

 

"Here lies, returned to clay,

Miss Arabella Young,

Who on the first day of May —

Began to hold her tongue."

 

"Upjohn Adams lies here, of the parish of Southwell,

A carrier who carried his can to his mouth well;

He carried so much, and he carried so fast,

He could carry no more, so was carried at last;

For the liquor he drunk was too much for the one,

He could not carry off, so he's now carrion."

"The Lord saw good,

I was topping off wood,

And down fell from the tree;

I met with a check,

And I broke my blessed neck,

And so death topped off me."

- I fought the good fight or I fulfilled God's plan or I didn't amount to much but then I didn't obey Him either, or 

I gave it all I had for the Lord, nothing I witheld, or despite the challenges in life God helped me and I did what I knew I had to do for God, or I made a difference to people's lives and I hope to see many of them in Heaven when I awake there.
