Thank you for your input. The reason for the alienation isn't horrific, as yours is. It's more generational dysfunction, [b]misunderstandings[/b] and stubborness all around. I am merely an advisor to the person who loved the deceased man and who is commissioning the plaque, which will be on his grave. We came up with:

Larlo Green (dates)
Devoted partner -friend insists on this (different words, but basically this.)
Talented Musician -similar to this, in that it describes his passion and gift
Forever with family - that is my suggestion, but friend says no.

I say you can't mention the romantic relationship without acknowledging his family.[/quote]

It’s never misunderstandings. That’s an excuse. [/quote]
It wasn't abuse, though. In other words, if there were more time things could've been resolved.[/quote]

Its not your family, so I would butt out of suggestions like that. Why do you need so much on a gravestone anyhow? [/quote]
Are you the [i]cemetery police[/i]

OP has obviously been invited into the process. Some people like just names and dates, and others a verse or two, and others are very elaborate.[/quote]

If you follow the thread, OP says their friend asked them for suggestions. He gave them the family wording suggestion and they told him they didn’t like that part. Yet he still continues to try to push that family should be somehow included on the inscription.[/quote]
Because it is a big family and he was close with most of them.[/quote]
