Advice on Choosing an Epitaph

When choosing an epitaph, remember that less is more. Epitaphs are meant to be short, clear, and powerful. Even if you use the entire back of a headstone, you’ll only have a few lines to capture a life’s story and emotions in words that will resonate for generations.

The best epitaphs convey genuine feeling while remaining timeless. It’s easy to choose something overly sentimental in the first wave of grief, so it’s wise to wait at least a year before making your decision. This pause allows your emotions to settle, ensuring your words truly reflect your loved one’s memory.

Think about whose voice you want the epitaph to have. Should it be from your perspective, from a friend’s, or written as if your loved one is speaking? Many find comfort in words that feel personal yet universal, connecting with visitors who stop by.

2. Advice on choosing an epitaph, featuring examples and considerations for a personal tribute.

Consider whether the epitaph should speak directly to someone—a passerby, family, or the loved one themselves. Phrases like “rest in peace” or “until we meet again” speak to all who read them while honoring the individual’s spirit.

Don’t hesitate to draw inspiration from poetry, song lyrics, or literature. A few words from a poem read at the funeral or a line from a favorite song can capture the essence of a life beautifully.

Above all, take your time. The epitaph you might choose immediately after a loss could differ greatly from the words you would select a year later. A timeless epitaph should bring peace to future visitors while comforting you each time you reflect on your loved one’s memory.

Whenever possible, choose words that celebrate life. An uplifting epitaph can offer comfort, hope, and a gentle reminder of gratitude to all who visit the grave.

Here is an example of an uplifting epitaph chosen by a young widow:
“She must have been devastated, yet her chosen words reflected gratitude for the time she shared with her husband rather than the grief of losing him too soon.”

Purpose of a Headstone Epitaph

A headstone epitaph, often paired with a name and dates, is more than just words on stone—it is a lasting message of love and remembrance. Whether it’s a Bible verse, a line of prose, or a simple gravestone quote, an epitaph is a way to honor the life, virtues, and spirit of someone you loved deeply.

An epitaph can remind us of the unbreakable bond between the living and the departed, offering a symbol of mortality—and, for many, of immortality and hope. It is a deeply personal choice, one that should reflect your heart and not be rushed or swayed by others.

Over the years, I’ve gathered and shared many headstone inscriptions and memorial quotes to inspire families in their search for the right words. What I’ve learned is that some of the most beautiful epitaphs are those that clients create themselves, or find within poems, song lyrics, or treasured family sayings. One of my favorites came from a song lyric chosen by a family: “Give me the beat boys and free my soul,” a line by Mentor Williams that captured the spirit of their loved one perfectly.

It’s important to remember that an epitaph will stand for generations, offering comfort to those who visit and ensuring your loved one’s story is remembered. There’s no need to rush. Often, I encourage families to wait at least a year before choosing an inscription, allowing time for grief to soften and clarity to guide their decision.

You may also find inspiration in headstone symbols and funeral poems, which can help you shape a message that feels right for your loved one. In many cases, the simplest inscriptions are the most profound, touching hearts with just a few words.

Take your time to find words that truly honor your loved one’s memory while bringing comfort and connection to those who come to remember them.
