Epitaph – Sorrowful Words

Goodbye to Frolicsome Grandpa

Farewell with a heavy heart

Do not be sad – Be Happy

Entrance to Cemetery

20 years on June 30th, my father-in-law passed away. I have not met him – but heard a lot of his stories from his daughter. His grave was tucked in the lonely corner of the cemetery, with few other lease graves behind his plain concrete one.

Every time I visit this cemetry, I stroll around other the path, reading the epitaph, taking pictures. There are few old graves with teary lines which marked the loss. This time too, I went around taking pictures of the epitaphs, and those marble statues chiseled from marble.

  • Do you like reading epitaphs and visiting old unknown graves? 
  • What do you think when you read them? 
  • What and how did they die – old age, or something that took them early?
  • Do you think how this cemetery might have looked some 50 or 60 years ago?
  • Have you thought of epitaph that should go on your grave?
