[quote=Anonymous]Simple is my style BUT... My mom did my dad's headstone and simple was NOT her style...she wrote everything she could think of. A poem, some tribute language. Acknowledged his humor. It's kind of funny as his headstone stands out as there is so much on it. It's more like it memorializes my mom and what she thought about him. When my mom passed away, I had to do the headstone...and I knew she took what was written seriously and cared about how much thought went into it. It took me a year but I ended up writing a 4 or 5 line tribute that I think she would like and that, for me, summed her up in some ways. I know hardly anyone will ever see it or read it but it just felt like something I had to do. Good luck whatever you decide. Make it something you are pleased with. Even a line from what you may have said at his funeral...[/quote]
