Graveyard Humour - Dead End
Cemetery Sign from Other Directions
Confused? Will and Guy Are
Firstly there is that no right turn 150 yards. Then there is the arrow
pointing to an entry for the Cemetery Hospital. How DO you get in?
Then when you get in where do you go? Out Patients - or Casualty?
Sleeping Prohibited
I must admit that I have never seen a 'Sleeping Prohibited'
sign, therefore
I deduce that someone has cleverly faked the word
sleeping in the above picture.
Best of Graveyard Humour
Tough Cookie
John is dying. However, he can smell his favorite chocolate nut
brownies cooking downstairs. John summons all the strength that he has
left, he flops out of bed and crawls downstairs. He sees the brownies
cooling on the counter and staggers over to them. As John reaches for one,
his wife's wrinkled old hand reaches out, smacks his and she yells:
'No John, you can't have those! They're for the funeral!'

Iris Benbow, recently widowed, requested the epitaph 'Rest in Peace' on
her husband's gravestone.
When Iris later found that he had left all his money to his mistress, she
attempted to get the mason to change the carving. This proved impossible as

'In that case,' Iris demanded, 'please add "Until We Meet Again." '
