What Do You Want On Your Tombstone?

Are you saying I'm not an important person in Scandinavian society???

I think my idea is beautiful and crafty.

 

I want a date that isn't to close to my birthday.

 

Please Pick Up After Your Pet.

 

he was the tuggish ruggish bone

 

It is And no, I didn't primarily share that thought because you don't have an important role in society (or because I think you shouldn't do such a thing). I just get the thought that if you would do it out of the feeling of tradition that it is most likely slightly incorrect. But like I said it isn't certain it was 100% limited to important societal people And you should do it how you want anyway!

 

If I was going for tradition I would have a full size ship built and a horde of people to send me off. But I only want a few special people and a mini ship just for my ashes already.

 

Actually, I told my kids to burn me up. I can't stand the thought of being buried, dead or alive. Well, especially alive. I don't know if claustrophobia carries over---but I ain't diggin' the idea of being under the ground.

 

Doesn't appeal to me either.

What about an 'indian' burial on top of a hill in the open sky? Maybe getting eaten by birds is better.

 

I changed my mind.

I want my tombstone to say - "Don't Forget To Feed The Cats!"

 

Another thing we have in common.

 

What'ch lookin' at the stone for... I'm standing right behind you.

 

A picture of muhammad. Nobody left to kill.

 

"King of the Sun".

Just to mess with archaeologists in 3000 years or so. After they dig me up and play around with my skeleton some.

Mine actually already exists and says nothing except my name and birth date. My parents decided to move here when they thought they would need to be closer to family for help while getting older. They bought a plot and asked me if I would want one. At the time I thought, why not?

Mom died in 2008 and Dad went to pick out a stone. I was at work so did not have a clue what his plan was for the stone. When I saw it I was stunned. It has their names and birth dates along with mine. I always assumed they would just get a stone for them and my plot would sit there till my time came along.

Over the years they told me that I could not be buried there unless I came back to the Catholic Church. I said that was not going to happen. I also planned to be cremated. I don't particularly want anyone to keep the ashes but won't be buried there in any case.

So.............. in the future when someone looks at the stone there will be another person with a birth date and no death date. I have seen several in the cemetery so far where the person could not possibly be alive anymore.

 

Love It.....



Cheers Glen.

 

I always liked what Dorothy Parker said:

Please Excuse My Dust

 

You cannot have your ashes buried there because you left the church?
