What would you like on your headstone?

On a recent visit to a churchyard I noticed the following on a headstone “He tried to be kind”
Have to say it made me smile.😊

If I had had a headstone I’d like it to say “forever loved” by her family

If I'm buried, I'd like some, possibly 4, strings attached to my toes and fingers, leading to bells above ground, incase I'm just in a really deep sleep!! Lol

If I had a gravestone then I'd like it to say:

She never bought a scratchcard or watched the Titanic.

or

I dare you to come back alone at midnight and lie quietly on my grave for 30 minutes in the dark. Don't forget I'll be under you but you won't see me until...

My husband believes he has a family curse.
So his will say “He tried so hard but never succeed because of his family curse”.

Mine will be “Take my breath away” which incidentally is the song played in the hotel when I first met my husband.

I want my ashes interred in the grave where my parents are buried in a quiet,peaceful country church yard.
Their inscription reads- Safe in Gods keeping- that will do me.
