Headstone With Purpose

Billy Graham's wife, Ruth, died a couple years ago, but only this morning did I learn how she wanted her headstone to read.

Googled it, and here it is:
Tough to read, simply says:

End of Construction; Thank you for your patience

I really like that...perhaps enough to steal the idea and use it on mine...

Have a dear friend whose first two wives passed away very young. When Sarah was dying, she told Phil she wanted her headstone to read, "Where Will You Spend Eternity?"  A few years later Phil's second wife died; she was buried next to Sarah with the words of one of her favorite songs carved into her stone, "In the Presence of Jehoveh."
