There’s really only one certainty in everyone’s life, and that is, well, at some point, we’re all going to kick the bucket. Sorry to get so morbid, but we’re not going to coddle you anymore. You’ve been warned.

While you may not get to decide how or when you go, you probably do get to decide whether you want to get cremated, buried, mummified, tossed to sea, or fed to wolves. But just this once, let’s pretend…

In honor of this week’s Grave Danger prompt, we asked our staff to write their own tombstone. Life’s short, but tombstones are shorter… you only get 15 characters per line x 5 lines max (75 characters total).
