70 Funny Tombstones By People With An Undying Humor
People's last words stick with us for a long time, but memory fades, and stone doesn't. Unless you get cremated, and your ashes end up in an urn, your remains get a grave and a headstone, and together with it - the last opportunity for a funny epitaph to entertain those who drop by for a visit.
The people below were not famous for their lives but rather because of their undying sense of humor engraved into their funny gravestones. From cute puns and dad jokes from the afterlife to warnings about the great beyond, these funny tombstones show that death is not always so serious.
Bored Panda has compiled a list of funny epitaphs on tombstones, proving that a sense of humor can live forever. From a delicious fudge recipe to an unapologetic joke about religion, these people are the nonliving examples of the right attitude. Scroll down to check out the deadly funny gravestones!

I think that pic of Kim is engraved in stone. 100 points to the tombstone creator.

Just went off to read up on this one. Apparently he commissioned the headstone and bought the plot ahead of time, but then went on and remarried another woman called Domnita. He died in 2011 and is actually buried with her (or in a double plot awaiting her, couldn't find anything else about her or Eleanor) elsewhere. This headstone was erected on the original plot but was removed at Domnita's request and the plot resold in 2014.

It's awful to have the birthing date of someone who is still alive on the tombstone - as if you are just waiting for him to be here.

I have seen, in person, the gay Vietnam veteran headstone in the Congressional Cemetery in Washington, DC. It is not F-A-K-E or F-U-N-N-Y!!! He severed honorably just I as did in Vietnam in 66-67.

There is one in my local graveyard from the early 1900's that says: "Here I sit as you pass by, for as you are so once was I, and as I am so you shall be, prepare yourself to follow me". I think it's brilliant.

That's actually stolen and misquoted from a 500 yr old stone in Wales I'm certain .K.

I really want a bench when I will die (unless I will be able to get the big crypt with my face on it and small park). There will be written something like "Have some rest like me and tell me a good story."
