Mary Louise Anne Spencer Deligne

Here lies Mary Louise Anne Spencer Deligne She met her end where two roads align She couldn’t stop her diesel in time, Hit an eighteen-wheeler carrying lime Buried her here, she was in her prime

You have a real knack for these epitaphs, Milt. Keep 'em coming -- the fictional ones, that is! Chuckle, gw

Maybe. It would liven up some of them (no pun intended).

Andrea, I'm amazed at how many people really enjoy my epitaphs! They are something like limericks, but much easier than limericks to write for me. I have problems with the rhythm limericks require. Fictional epitaphs are so much fun. Thanks for your read and comment.

Well, I certainly hope none of us hit a tractor-trailer truck full of lime! Thanks, Tom. Glad you enjoyed it.
