"Some Grave Humor for Monday Mourning" Posted 5 Apr 2021
take note: if you don't go to your friend's funerals they won't go to yours some think our cemetery is nice but I wouldn't be caught dead there i guess i shouldn't say that some people are just dying to get in for those people who are already buried there things are looking up the town mortician just moved trust me, he's going to a better place the busiest man in town just died he was buried in paperwork hope these one-liners were to die for I guess I just dig grave humor

"its appendix was removed" "any books on living forever?" "try this by Ida Wanda Dye"

These are all great, but your 'Monday Mourning' title beat them all - I hope you had a great Easter (and maybe find some spare time to grace us with more of your witty, wonderful writes? Forgive me, I just miss them)
