Witty Epitaphs

Here are a few epitaphs that say a little more than "rest in peace."

Here lies Lester Moore.
Four slugs
From a forty-four.
No Les
No More

Here lays Butch.
We planted him raw.
He was quick on the trigger
But slow on the draw.

Here lies a man named Zeke.
Second fastest draw in Cripple Creek.

Here lies the body of Arkansas Jim.
We made the mistake, But the joke's on him.

On an attorney:
Goembel
John E.

"The defense rests"

On an Auctioneer:
Jedediah Goodwin
Auctioneer
Born 1828
Going!
Going!!
Gone!!!

On a waiter:
Here lies the body of
Detlof Swenson.
Waiter.
God finally caught his eye.
April 10, 1902

Here lies
Johnny Yeast.
Pardon me
For not rising.
