Tombstone Inscription
Your dedication, love, inspiration, and loyalty to family,
loved ones, and friends lives on in the minds and hearts of
all
those whose lives you touched."
On back of tombstone:
I will contain all knowledge;
No thought will escape my tenacity;
I will astound the aristocrats;
Nothing or no one can stop me;
But what if I am unlucky;
But what if I am not the man I see;
But what if time plays its hand;
In dreams, I will, with no doubt;
In reality, I hope, wonder, and despair"
