I always like the tombstone joke where it reads "Look behind you."
Mine will most likely say, "Finally, a room of my own!"
Or, mayhaps "Nap time!”
Or, mayhaps, "Rattle my bones!"
Or, mayhaps, "All her life she caught and ate, now at last she is the bait."
I love tombstone headings. Of course, the prettiest I've ever read is "I had a lover's quarrel with the world." I believe that one belongs to Frost.
