I Want to Know What You Want On Your Tombstone

My Tombstone

I've always wanted my tombstone to say "ashes to ashes we all fall down." I know It might sound a little childish but that phrase has always struck me.

    To quote author Beth Moore, I want my tombstone to read "God got tired."

    That would be very appropriate for a cremation urn.



    I have never wanted a grand memorial to my death. Spare the real estate and spread me thin.



    I actually prefer the idea of a park laid out like a botanic gardens. Instead of tombstones and urns there would be trees and benches and flower gardens and ponds. Each place would be a memorial to someone who has died. A small plaque would commemorate the life of the one who had died, but the space would be dedicated to those who have loved the person who died.



    So my "tomb stone" will read - In celebration for those I have loved. Followed by my name and days of birth and death.
