_________________________________________
As much as someone is loved, recalling
what made them special and summarizing those feelings for a bronze
plaque with limited space after their death can be challenging.
However, experts agree that the
process of writing a loved one's epitaph can often actually be
comforting and essential to a normal grieving process.
More than simply stating a person's
name and dates of birth and death, we encourage you to take advantage of
the opportunity to let those viewing the plaque in future years gain a
better sense of the loved one's personality and what he or she meant to
surviving friends and family.
In addition to the following examples,
also consider gathering thoughts for a plaque from friends or family
face-to-face, on the phone or by e-mail.
Their collective memories are certain
to make it easier to create an epitaph that portrays the essence of the
individual who has departed.
Note: Some of these epitaph
examples may not fit within the guidelines allowed for our standard
plaque size.
Words Of Bronze On This Stone
Are A Reminder You're Never Alone
Your Wonderful Life Of So Many Years
We Shall Celebrate Without Any Tears
Gone, But Not Forgotten
Beneath This Stone Rests My Love
Her Soul Long Ago Free As A Dove
When I Come To Visit This Special Place
I Shall Always Recall Her Smiling Face
A Husband And Wife So Dear
Sleep Together As Always Here
Their Spirits Separated Never Again
Their Soul With Christ For Ever Reign
I Am The Resurrection And The Life,
He That Believeth In Me Though
He Die Yet Shall He Live
Beneath This Simple Stone
That Marks His Resting Place
Our Precious Father Sleeps Alone
In The Lord's Long Embrace
They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.
A heart of gold stopped beating,
two willing hands at rest,
God broke our hears to prove to us
He only takes the best
Life is not measured by
the breaths we take,
but by the moments
that take our breath away
Sweet little flower
of heavenly birth,
you were too fair
to bloom on earth.
When someone you love
becomes a memory,
the memory becomes
a wonderful treasure
Gone yet not forgotten.
Although we are apart,
your spirit lives within me,
forever in my heart.
I know she's in a special place
our Lord has for such friends,
where meadows, fields & flowers
help make them strong and whole again.
It Matters Not How Long
A Star Shines, What Is
Remembered Is The
Brightness Of The Light
God looked around his garden
and saw an empty place.
He then looked down on
earth, and saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be a beautiful
place, He only takes the best.
"When you are sorrowful, look
again in your hear and you
shall see that in truth you are
weeping for that which has
been your delight" - Kahlil Gibran
When you're feeling alone,
just remember our love,
I'm up near the stars
looking down from above.
Wishing today as we wished before; That
God could have spared you many years
more; In our heart your memory is kept;
To love, to cherish and to never forget.
