• Here lies the body
of Jonathan Blake
Stepped on the gas
Instead of the brake.
Memory of an accident in a Uniontown, Pennsylvania cemetery
• Here lays Butch,
We planted him raw.
He was quick on the trigger,
But slow on the draw.
In a Silver City, Nevada, cemetery
• I was somebody.
Who, is no business
Of yours.
Someone determined to be anonymous in Stowe, Vermont
• Here lies the body of our Anna
Done to death by a banana
It wasn't the fruit that laid her low
But the skin of the thing that made her go.
Anna Hopewell's grave in Enosburg Falls, Vermont
• Sir John Strange.
Here lies an honest man.
And that is Strange.

Die Young

Pardon me
For not rising
In Ruidoso, New Mexico
• Here lies Ann Mann,
Who lived an old maid
But died an old Mann

• Reader if cash thou art
In want of any
Dig 4 feet deep
And thou wilt find a Penny.

Than he could pay

All dressed up And no place to go.
In a Thurmont, Maryland, cemetery
