Spike Milligan, a famous British comedian had the last laugh. His epitaph says "I told you I was ill"
Winston Churchill - "I am ready to meet my maker. Whether my maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter"
The Unknown Soldier - "To save your world you asked this man to die: Would this man, could he see you now, ask why?
How would you like to be remembered and what would be your last message to the world.

"And they say jogging is good for you?"
I was just thinking about the day I decided to take up jogging. I almost got run over that day when a car drove up on the side walk! This was one of the things I joked about when it happen, as a good saying that would have went on my stone.

I'm not planning on having one but if I did it would probably say.
"just walking the dog, back soon" or
"where's my flowers?" or my favourite
"Guess who's behind you,"

Very funny.
I remember years ago I went through a cleaning the home obsssion until one day I thought all I will have on my gravestone is,
"She Kept A Tidy Home"
So that obsession soon went out the window.
Now I think it would read,
"Finally I've learnt How To Keep My Mouth Shut"
Thanks for your responses to my discussions.
Much appreciated.

I always thought that I would like something similar to Spike Milligan's. I would like it to be something people will smile at when they read it. Maybe "Finally ! Some sleep!" I am going to have to think about this and get back to you. I thought I had an answer but now I'm not so sure. :)

"proud father, loving husband. will miss his family" hehe.
i don't know but i'd like to have something like my example but better. something which shows how much i care about family life and those important things which people take for granted.
i'm going to buried. i won't be burnt into little ashes which will be blow away, i'd like my future family to visit me and know where i am. (in each of there hearts)
-sounds like i'm dying!!
