The Witty Epitaphs of Key West Cemetery

Key West, Florida, has long been the home of quirky folks with a sense of humor. That humor is reflected even in gravestones. The Key West Cemetery is famous for its many one-liners, some with backstories that are still available, others for which one must use one's imagination. The gravestone shown here is for Thomas Romer, 1783-1891. The epitaph says he was a good citizen for 65 years. That's nice, but he died at age 108. That's just one of many witty one-liners found at the cemetery, some with pictures, that you'll find at Amusing Planet.
