Cost an awful lot of money for a headstone if you decied to be buried at sea.

although that one liner was accredited to spike, i acctualy read that in a book of headstones many years before his death, point of interest he also used to dig victorian tips and collect clay pipes that he dug up, i spent many a happy time with him doing the same, kali.

Like that one subee...made me laugh.
Theres one in my local graveyard of teh old man we used to know next door that he penned himself.
" I'd rather be up there with you ...than  down here with me!"
Kali I would have loved to have dug up old clay pipes or glass bottles...one day perhaps. You are very lucky to have shared this with him

[trellisick]

very lucky, he was a very clever & sincere man but no different of stage to when he was on stage, kali.

Flat out in a shroud in a coffin with my hands crossed and stuff - seen that. NO LIKE 

But if you really must - 'She tried to understand'

Certainly not what is on gggrandmother's tombstone - "She hath done what she could"!!!  Talk about damning with faint praise!  And not at all appropriate for the formidable woman that she was!

I like "She did it her way."
