R.I.P. .... but with a smile !

[Rewcastle]

And as the old woman who was sick of husband put on his headstone "Under this sod, lies another old sod" 

[Berlin-Bob]

From Burlington Vt.

She lived with her husband fifty years
And died in the confident hope of a better life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From La Pointe, Wis.

To the Memory of Abraham Beaulieu
Born 15 September 1822
Accidentally shot 4th April 1844
As a mark of affection from his brother.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a Ribbesford, England cemetery:

Anna Wallace
The children of Israel wanted bread
And the Lord sent them manna,
Old clerk Wallace wanted a wife,
And the Devil sent him Anna. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A lawyer's epitaph in England:

      Sir John Strange
      Here lies an honest lawyer,
      And that is Strange.

"Here lies John Dunn
 He was killed by a gun
 His name was not Dunn but Wood
 But Wood would not rhyme with gun
 But Dunn would"

Seems they had a pretty good sense of humour even in the dark ages, LOL
