Remember, man who passes by,
As you are now,
So once was I,
And as I am now, so must you be,
prepare yourself to follow me.
(beneath the epitaph, a living wit wrote:)
To follow you, I'me not content,
until I learn which way you went.
*****************************************************
When an elderly spinster died, her family could not come up
with a suitable epitaph for her gravestone until one of the
family remembered that a cousin was a sportswriter and
asked him to compose the inscription, He wrote:

Here lie the bones of Mary Jones,
Her life it knew no terrors,
Born an old maid, died an old maid,
No runs, no hits, no errors.

On the gravestone of a 19th century quack DR.

Reader, Dr. Johnson is alas, no more
He visits those he visited before.

***********************************************************
Here lie the bones
of Alfred Jones.
When from the tomb
to meet his doom
he rises amidst sinners,
take him to dwell
in Heaven or Hell,
whichever serves big dinners.
