Headstone Sayings & Quotes

!±8± Headstone Sayings & Quotes

A headstone saying, quote, or epitaph is an inscription on a tombstone in memory of the one buried there. It gives a brief literary piece commemorating a deceased person. Some headstone sayings or quotes are  taken from biblical scripture, poetry, or notes what the person was best known for.

The final stage of burial is the laying of ashes or body in the ground or vault. When you place a loved one in a cemetery, the headstone is the final piece that identifies their grave. They often are short reflections of the person's existence and highlights their personality or accomplishments.

Headstone sayings & quotes can also come in the form of comfort to the surviving family members. Nevertheless, they are unique sayings personal to the deceased. "Rest in Peace" is a popular headstone saying that is well known and often used.

Some people can get an idea of headstone sayings by walking around a cemetery and reading some of the headstones. It's important to personalize the headstone by selecting a phrase that is appropriate for the deceased. Remember that this will mark their grave forever.

Headstone sayings do not have to be lengthy phrases but rather can be short phrases that contain words relating to the deceased. For example, a saying for a religious father who served in the military, may read-"Loved God, Family, and Country".

There are also headstone sayings that contain longer phrases. Such as this epitaph for a man from Texas which reads "An amiable father here lies at rest As ever God with his image blest. The friend of man, the friend of truth, The friend of age, the guide of youth."

Headstone sayings & quotes can be thought provoking to the passerby. One such headstone may read: "My good people as you pass by as you are now so once was I. As I am now you soon will be, prepare yourself to follow me." They can contain various themes but the most important aspect of writing an epitaph is to make sure it reflects the person's personality or character.
