When my little sister died, we started seeing a lot of butterflies around, so the image we placed on her tombstone was of a baby girl sitting on a leaf, with a bunch of butterflies tied to it, who flew her to the afterlife. It was nice to be able to get something so personalized. Often the pictures you see on the tombstones around the child area of the cemetery are just generic teddy bear images or similar. I think people weren't really aware they could get anything they wanted. I really want something snarky or fun to read so decades after everyone has forgotten about me, someone will come across my headstone and have a chuckle.

I'm sure she would have approved. We both have an odd sense of humor so hopefully it doesn't offend too many wall viewers. I had one other time towards the end of her life when I shocked her, and I think I made her proud. When we talked to her about the radiation therapy she would undergo, she told me they would have to tattoo her to help pinpoint the spots to blast. She thought I was joking when I said, "You get a tattoo, so do I." I was lucky enough to have her write Remember when..., before I took a day at home (the swelling in her hands was pretty bad) so on my day away I got her hand writing tattooed on the inside of my left wrist. Revealing it to her the next day and her gasp of, "You cheeky girl!" was worth the 10 minutes of irritation.

When we were picking out my sister's headstone we walked by one in progress that was very interesting. A woman was designing it, after her husband had passed. It was tall and kind of like a lamppost in shape. About 4ft. The top had a box with the front having holes. See the lady planned to be cremated and have her remains (probably first in another box), sealed in the top. But, because she was afraid of the dark, she wanted the holes so light would shine in. I find it fascinating how people do things. We are interesting creatures for sure.

Super late to adding this! There is a headstone in Logan, Utah made of legos. The child’s father made the LEGO headstone because that is what he and his son did a lot. Alone the sides of the headstone there are little window scenes of knights saving princesses, and probably things that means something in their relationship. It’s a very unique, and well done gravestone.

It's not a symbol but definitely my favourite is the "Kay's Fudge" tombstone, a tombstone with a recipe engraved on it. I like to think that the owner refused to give out the recipe in life, "over my dead body", and/or that a wrong ingredient or measurement was included just to mess with people. I feel like there's something to be examined in the similarity of tombstone symbols and the pagan runestone... And I swear in Hocus Pocus, there's a winged death head on Billy Butcherson's tombstone.

There's this grave I noticed a few years ago, at the cemetery my grandma is buried; on top of where the casket is, there lies a marble sculpture of girl (actual human sized) on top of a marble "bed", almost as if she's sleeping. It always catches my eye, and for some reason I always believed that the person to whom the grave belongs might have been a young girl from a wealth family who died unexpectedly, and so her family wanted to build a beautiful and breathtaking grave.

Every time I go to a cemetery, I see dead people. You see, here in Russia we put the photo of the dead person on their tombstone. It is either printed on the stone itself or on a simple metal oval that is later nailed to a cross or a stone. I know that it is not a widespread tradition in many countries, so I thought it would be interesting to share.

There are some of those "photo" ovals in our local cemeteries in Northern California, USA that date back to the 1800's. Not only do they depict the person while alive, but several of them have a second oval that shows them either in their coffin or lying on a bed after death. Kind of like before and after photos. I suppose the idea was brought overseas from Europe when these people came to the California for the gold rush. I have also seen these same photo ovals on much more recent headstones lately.

@@teresalanham2678 Hi, I feel as if I know you and I'm glad. You're very special. Little acts of kindness can indeed change the world. The truth is, anything that powerful isn't little. To answer your question, I'm going along day by day, more or less okay. I try to look outward and upward, away from myself But that's easier said than done, as you well know. Sometimes the Next Room seems a world away but it's good to know it's there. For us and anyone else who may read this, I found a wonderful book by CS Lewis. The first little word in the title is very important: "A" Grief Observed. It's his personal journal he wrote as he was trying to cope while mourning his wife's death. He later decided to publish it to help others and it has become one of the most widely read books of the 20th century. It legitimizes whatever someone grieving might be feeling and poignantly affirms that each person's grieving process is unique, real and valid. Because Lewis was such a strong and faithful Christian, his recounting of the "Midnight Madness" mixture of anger, doubt, pain and sometimes desolate loneliness is especially consoling. Through it all he never lost his faith or his genuinely human relational God. Speaking for myself, it is God's son Who has kept me afloat. With Him and no less, gentle caring people like you I can be genuinely okay, deep down knowing I am not alone and that I can make it to and through tomorrow. I don't know what your personal faith convictions are but I don't think it's any accident that your name is Teresa. The one I call "Little Teresa", God's Little Flower, made every act, even picking up a pin, an act of love. You reflect her. The other Theresa (of Ávila), the one I call "Big Teresa", was a woman with the strength of iron and a love to match. Such are you. God bless always. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have seen that photo and you’re right, it’s heartbreaking. To think that these two people married, lived together, had children (I believe), lived their lives out together, and in the end, when everything was said and done, to be buried in separate cemeteries all because of religion. I like to think that they were loved so much by their children, that the children MADE sure that they were buried head-to-head, and that they made that simple, beautiful little tombstone with the hands clasping over the cemetery wall just for them. What a gentle reminder that, while life may not be easy and it may seem everything and everyone is against you, love does conquer all - even if occasionally it needs a bit of help now and again. As to the location, I’m sorry that I cannot recall where this is located at, but I do believe it is in Europe. For some reason, I’m thinking Poland, but I could not tell you why or even if that is correct. As I recall, it was an older cemetery, did not appear to have a lot of damage, and had large trees. I give this information (as best as I can recall, it has been some time since I have seen the photo but is still very powerful), because as the time I was doing research on WWII, but I cannot remember if this was just a sideline I came across or what. I do remember thinking, “This beautiful little piece made it thru.” And it is a beautiful little piece.
Yeah, I come from an interfaith family and my parents haven't figured out what they're going to do yet, so that one hits close to home.

I like the idea of putting something on the headstone that reflects who the person was or what they liked. My grandma chose a wooded scene with deer for my grandpa's headstone because he liked the outdoors and hunting. They also built in a little display area for mini John Deere tractors because he worked for John Deere all of his life. You can see the tractors but it would be almost impossible to get them out. They've been in there for almost 18 years now. It's a perfect reflection of who my grandpa was.

We have a cemetery established in 1898 about a ten minute walk from my house. It's a beautiful 100 acres of memories to wander, and I often see our honeybees gathering from the clover and other flowers growing there while walking my dog. There are many diverse monuments that are really unusual, including a creepy pyramid mausoleum for the city founders (that unfortunately local junkies and other trashy people like to vandalize -.-). Never the less, I enjoy wandering through the oldest parts, visit the Civil War monument, and looking at the incredible artistry. My favorites are the ones carved to look like tree trunks to show the deceased was part of the local lumber union.

I had a book a while ago printed around 1900 where someone went around to gravestones and gathered an anthology of epitaphs. They ranged from the depressing to the hilarious. Perhaps one of my absolute favourites: 'I told you I was sick.' As a genealogist who has spent several years studying my family history, gravestones and epitaphs serve a very real, concrete purpose from a research perspective. Since discovering this channel and the movements you've discussed, I've tried to hunt down as many graves and/or memorials of my family as I can. I'm getting there. On a separate, semi-related note: I know that my all-time favourite poet and Romantic, John Keats, has 'here lies a man who's name is writ in water.' It's particularly cutting as he died at 25 after fighting TB for three months. Although a poet, he was a trained surgeon. The first symptom he experienced was coughing blood onto a pillow (the particularly dark colour you'd expect). He turned to a friend and said 'This is arterial blood. I am dead.' I'm still deciding what my epitaph should be but I already know where I'm getting my ashes scattered.... And on that morbid note...

Back in highschool, my friend's lit class got a project to create epitaphs (i think it had something to due with a Shakespeare play they were reading at the time). They could create an epitaph for just about anyone and anything, so my friend asked if they could write an epitaph for me. This is what they came up with: "Catherine M. lieth here And if you dig her up, I fear, Her mouth will still be moving on, Despite the fact that she is gone." While a bit insulting, I was more insulted that she put my death date at 12/13/2012... Regardless, I kept the "grave stone" she put the epitaph on. It still taped to my wall, and I'll probably have it on my gravestone when the time comes.
