Epitaphs
An epitaph or verse makes a memorial more expressive; it consoles and inspires. It is the message of love and faith from the relatives and friends of the deceased to the world at large – even to future generations. It is not necessary that you choose an epitaph from this list. You may have seen a fitting verse elsewhere or you may prefer an inspiring quotation from the scripture.
