We all die...it is the only thing that is certain after taxes :laugh:

What sentence would you want to have as your epitaph?

This is going to be your last statement to the world to be remembered by?

Would it be something funny or meaningful?

    Since I will be cremated, I plan to have one of my favorite lyrics placed with me before hand...


    "One of these days your eyes will close and pain will disappear."

    Many ancient Roman tombstones had the epitaph NFFNSNC, or the full version: "Non fui, fui, non sum, non curo" (I didn't exist, I existed, I don't exist, I don't care). I think I'll take that one.

    Seems like the Romans were very well educated :smile: As are you!!!

    But a good epitaph, even if you stole it from the Romans :tongue:

    Something meaningful.

    While I plan on being cremated, with my ashes spread over the Cascade Mountains, if there was one statement I would wish to be remembered by, that summed up my life in the way others thought of me, it would be "He was Jesus to the least of these".

    Given my life history, however, I probably won't make that mark, so if I can manage to positively impact even ONE soul while I'm here on this rock, I'll be okay with that. Oh, that, and hearing my Lord say "Well done, good and faithful servant!"

    I'm not sure, but I just want it to be something that provides peace for my loved ones. I feel that funerals and such are not really for the dead but for the living to get the closure that they need.
