What will it say on your tombstone?

Here lays a Trapper under this bit of ground.
Just dig a little deeper & he will be found.
He is down there a thinking & messing around.
Of just what critter in his trap will be found.

Mine would probably say..."he should have seen it coming"

Mine will say "no entrance to animal heaven"

I tried my best.
Now here I lay, in eternal rest.

Nothing!! I’m not gonna have a gravesite. Burned up and dumped in the lake.

lol,me too

"Ma loved Pa
Pa loved wimmin
Ma caught Pa with 2 in swimmin
Here lies Pa..."

"All things considered, I'd rather be fishing."

"Thanks for the opportunity, I hope I did not disappoint. Please, smile when you think about me"

I told you I was sick.

Here Lies Ryan. He Was A Trapper.

Pee here

I'll be cremated and have my ash's scattered in the creek where I live. Never been happier than on this piece of land and I have a dislike of being underground.
Zim

He meant well.

same here zim. I just posted what it would say if I was buried. Ive already given instructions to 2 of my cousins to spread my ashes at Wolf Mountain overlooking the flats. A spot where weve spotted caribou from many times. Ive instructed them to spread the ashes on the first south east wind after im gone that way the ashes will blow down hill for a couple seconds then back uphill and all over the boys. My final "HAHA" moment.

I Am to be cremated and my ashes spread over the lands I loved to hunt and trap but if I was to have a headstone I would want it to read something like this...... Waited a lifetime on this earth .... just to hear the words "Well done faithful servant, Welcome and come on in" at my day of judgment!!! Amen!!!!

Who am I?
I am a pebble on a beach
A blade of grass in a field
A cloud in the sky
Catching a glimpse of this world as time goes by
The flame of a candle to light your way
A drop of water on a rainy day
A mighty tree in an endless forest
The softer voice of a singing chorus
I am these things and so much more
For I'm not just a window I am the door

“He lived, he died”.

bike rack

ha ha me three.

I did my part
Now you do yours
And God willing may are
Next meeting be in Heaven.

Well its no pyramid but this will do.

DIDN'T know this but just had my will redone and told attorney I was going to be cremated and scattered . She instantly said I didn't hear that. It is illegal in Ky to scatter remains . Better check the laws

I would rather be bow hunting then to be here. Actually I plan on ashes spread at the ranch.

Seems like a stupid law. We're all biodegradable, aren't we?

No reason to put it in your will if you have friends and loved ones that will see that your wishes are carried out. Last thing I want is the *^&%(^ govt having the last word over my life here on earth!

I have already told my daughter that I want to be cremated and my ashes scattered at the farm next to the creek. I love walking the old cemeterys here and looking at the tombstones from the settlers, but I doubt that sentiment will exist much in the future. So no need to waste money on one for me.

Hopefully St. Peter will tell me "Good ride cowboy, good ride."

I also plan on creamation, I just hope my kids don't put me in the litter box!

My tombstone will say extra cheese and mushrooms.

A fire hydrant for a tombstone and a sign that says "Go ahead, everyone else did."

My friend wanted his ashes spread in the outhouse at camp , to keep the stink down !

Took 4 tries but we got it done!

I've always wanted one of these two:
Naked I came into this world, and naked I shall depart. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord. (Job 1:21)

Let us cross the river and rest in the shade of the trees (last words of Stonewall Jackson)

here i sit
broken hearted.
paid to poop,
but only farted.

wait,that's the bathroom wall.

won't do that again

my preference is for my carcass to be left out on the prairie. the way coyote carcasses get cleaned up it would be gone in a few months im sure. that aint legal. burial without first being taxidermyed is pretty complicated. taxidermy of humans seems a little immoral to me for some reason. kicking a body in a hole and filling it in wont do anymore. (who knows why) so that leaves creamation and the ashes tossed in the local river. law wont let my buddies grind my carcass up and make bait out of it either.

who knows what my kids will do with it. I sure wont know but they all know what I want

I really thought that would work.

"Im buried face down so y'all can kiss my ..."

I want a quote from the great and wise one Pig Killer ( Remember no matter where you go there you are.)

Be careful... this might be a trap.

One method would be to head out into the prairie while you can...die in a place you know and know you will not be found too soon or at all. Carry a note sealed tight to last much longer than your bones.

Want to be ground and used as bear bait no words.

Yup ...toast me up and put the remains in my Lionel Coal Hoppers ..13 of them ...and run me around my model RR Layout !

" Better make sure he's here, probably late as usual."

I told you I was sick.

I guess if I set it up it a head time would be my signature here on T-man. Got it engraved on my zippo so maybe just JB weld my zippo to the stone. My son said he was going to just push me out in the river let turtles and catfish clean me up..
Wife made me buy a couple plots back when I was doing the cancer thing. So I guess I can't be burned up she wants to know where my carcass is in the ground not stinking things up some where.

My father was know to be kinda ornery, We thought about putting on his stone. "Now I Got Something To _itch About!"
Figured that wasn't fair to mom..

When my brother passed he was cremated..I had Larry Finch make me up some of the brass tags with his name and such. Gave some to his daughters and my sister inlaw. They thought it was pretty cool. We left one in the ground at couple places we spread his ashes. Buried one by his deer stand and I've left them here and there in places he and I hunted and fished. Just my little thing maybe someday some one find a tag say who was this guy. Wonder why is this here.


Mac

Why seek ye the living amongst the dead?

I'm not dying, lol don't need one, jk
My dad is just getting cremated and no grave

I plan on living forever. So far, so good.

one of these two...

"Good Riddance"

or...

"Paul TOLD him to cut it out!"

If you see me getting smaller I’m leaving don’t be grieving
Just got to get away from here
If you see me getting smaller don’t worry I’m in no hurry
I’ve got the right to disappear

We already have our stone up due to twins passing. They will be between us. Name, birthdate, Psalm 121:1 I always appreciate the funny ones. After my death and they add the date I may have a smiley face added.

“Almost made it”

Death by misadventure

"Missed it by that much"

Died from pizza.

lived on this hunk of land my whole 50 yrs so far,and if i do happen to pass away,which i'm too mean to do,i've been promised i'll be poofed and hid in a stump by the river down back.

“Wildman Extraordinare: He had ALOT OF FUN!”

One Day you too will be here :

Live your life now and enjoy it, Try to leave it better than you were given it.

Touch another's life and yours will worth more.

See you soon.

I don't really care what mine says. Heck donate my whole body to help other people who need organs im dead so why should I care

yepper,they got my signature to part me out before they sizzle me.

Probably should’ve finished the antibiotic Rx per the Doctor’s order.

Don't mourn me as I didn't like you anyway.

I once had a cousin call , and asked to speak to my Mom. Mom wasn't home, so he asked who I was. I told him .. Only words he could get out was ….


"YOU'RE STILL ALIVE"????????????????

He dropped dead of a Heart Attack a few years ago, and YES, I AM STILL ALIVE!!

Only 2 things are certain in life, Death and Taxes, I'd rather still be paying taxes!

Like a fart, I made some noise and now I am gone.

Hopefully dying won't be a thing anymore by the time I get to the age of planning my tombstone.
I wonder what age we'd be before we wished for death? I bet about 200 years and all the sights could be seen, women satisfied, cigarettes smoked, ECT.

I told you I didn't feel good.

Those left overs tasted funny

Should have got a mushroom identification book

Anyone else feel too warm

I'd like to by thrown in a hole along a bench in our woods behind the house that has lots of white oak trees grow on it. I told my sons, that if they could swing it, to throw a few acorns in the dirt the shovel over me. I like the thought of doing some good for the trees that help feed the deer I love to hunt.

I don't see a need for taking up even a small chunk of land so that it does nothing for years to come and I'd rather have trees over me than a block of stone with my name on it.

A dead Wolf lies in this spot. I have a wolf statue guarding my wife's grave.

"Better to die on your feet than live on your knees."

A tattoo I have and something I live by... either that or

old hide of mine and make it into a

peace between the two things i love
most

here i lie broken hearted

paid to poop but only farted.

Ashes to ashes,,Dust to dust,,If it weren't for yer butt hole,,,Yer belly would bust !!

Overdosed on viagra, his Wife took it very hard.

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY COW! WHAT A RIDE!"

the man that came up with you aint got the balls never saw the teabag on a 80 yr old.

Just passing through

Best nap yet!

Name and date of birth and death only. I don't want to be taxidermied or lit on fire, just put in a plain wooden box naked and stuffed in the ground.

my farm will be my tombstone.

"He's Dead"

FINALLY He's quiet

" WOW " - WHAT A RIDE !!

stubborn as a mule now worm fuel

I donated my body to a medical school. After they cut me up and look at me they will cremate me. My kids can throw out the ashes however they want.

I also have a grave site with a tombstone already up. My tombstone says
Kevin Patrick Sullivan
Father of
Brenna Marie
Kip Patrick

I figure it is nice to have a tombstone if there is ever some family member, in the future, trying to research family history. And my kids names on there will give some direction, to whomever might be looking.

I will be cremated and my ashes thrown into the lake.

As long as we're on the subject of tombstones:
Some have said Ben Franklin was an atheist. Not according to his epithet:

"The Body of B. Franklin, Printer
Like the cover of an old book,
Its contents torn out,
And stript of its lettering and
guilding, lies here, food for worms.
But the work shall not be lost,
For it will, as he believed,
appear once more.
In a new and more elegant edition.
Corrected and improved by its
author."

Given by Ben Franklin to
Sam Morris
August 31,1776

" He's finally voting Democrat"

Ryan was a hunter and trapper. He loved it.

My dad said he walked up to an Indian grave and said "Chief, what did the white man kill you for?" The Indian said nothing.

Here it is ...Just waiting for me to crawl under it … denotes some of the things I enjoyed doing - Hunting/Fishing, Music, and writing.

The way I felt out checking traps today … it might be sooner than later.




Garry-

My last wish is pour me in a tray on the tailgate of my 69' chevy and drive the trap line. With the mt. Winds it should be a short loop. Lol

Cremated and ashes spread benieth a big flat rock at my camp where my father's ashes are and same place his parents are and a simple cross behind the rock.

whatever the living folks put it on - matter's not to me

Speaking from experience. Getting everything done, before a person dies, makes it much easier on the living. Why trouble the living with getting a tombstone, buying a burial plot, deciding what the deceased wishes might be. Do it all before you die and save the living the trouble of making decisions while grieving.

My parents had everything already laid out. They had a burial plot, tombstone already in place and things all ready. It sure made it easy on me, and my brothers, in making closure. There is enough to do without trying to decide what the dead wished.

That is why I have everything spelled out, taken care of, and paid for. That way my children have nothing to do except to cry over my poor, ol" bones.

In the spring he strutted and in the fall he rutted

Here lies Lufkin trapper
stiff at last.

it was me
for a moment,
for a moment,
for a moment

If you're still holding my beer, you can set it down.

My feelings exactly … my is all done … paid for and the stone laid... coffin and service is done including CDs fir the music I want played. The only thing left is to write the Obit the way I want it.

Garry-

The plan is to not have one for me. I plan to be cremated and my wish is to have most of the ashes scattered back into the land that gave me great pleasure and enjoyment and lessons learned. The family is becoming OK wiht all this. Might make some bacteria that makes some plant that some minnow eats and some merganser eats the fish and flies south and deposits the doo-doo and this creates food for returning flights and start it all over again!

Well "he had been drinking and I said hold my beer and watch this"
