Memorial Inscription: Format, Ideas and Quotes for Urn or Headstone Epitaph

When suddenly faced with the death of a loved one and the myriad of decisions about final arrangements, memorial service details, burial or cremation, etc., it is often difficult to sit and think well about what to put on a memorial stone or cremation urn as an epitaph to commemorate a loved one’s life. Here are some standard formatting options and ideas for headstone and urn inscriptions to start you on the right track.

Standard Inscription Format:

In Loving Memory
John Doe
January 1, 1943 – December 31, 1999

Other first lines:

In Memorium

In Remembrance

In Fondest Memory Of

In Treasured Memory Of

In Honored Memory Of

In Cherished Memory Of

Happy Memories Of

Other epitaph date formats:

1/1/43 – 12/31/99

1/1/1943 – 12/31/1999

Jan. 1, 1943 – Dec. 31, 1999

1943 – 1999

Additional Lines:

Often a short epitaph, 2-15 words in length, will be engraved below the dates. See below for list of short epitaphs. The format would then look like this:

In Loving Memory
Jane Doe
January 1, 1943 – December 31, 1999
Faithful Wife, Loving Mother

Engraving a middle name:

John D. Doe

John David Doe

Bible Verses for Headstone or Urn Inscription:

(For more Scripture verses fit for an epitaph, click here.)

Love is patient, love is kind.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

God is our refuge and our strength.

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases.

Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

(NIV)

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. (ESV)

He gives His beloved sleep.

The Lord bless thee and keep thee;
The Lord make His face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon thee and give thee peace.

And so we will be with the Lord forever.

We live by faith, not by sight.

Short Epitaph Poems for Headstone or Urn Inscription:

You are not forgotten, loved one
Nor will you ever be
As long as life and memory last
We will remember thee

Memory is a lovely lane,
Where hearts are ever true,
A lane I so often travel down,
Because it leads to you.

His charming ways and smiling face,
Are a pleasure to recall,
He had a kindly word for each,
And died beloved by all.

A silent thought, a secret tear,
Keeps his memory ever dear.
Time eases the edge of grief,
Memory turns back every leaf.

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on
When we shall be forever with the Lord.
When disappointment, grief and fear are gone,
Sorrow forgot, love’s purest joys restored.
Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past
All safe and blessèd we shall meet at last.

Though absent you are very near
Still loved, still missed, and very dear

There is a link death cannot sever,
Love and remembrance last forever

Remembered always with love sincere
Memories keep him ever near

You still live on in the hearts and minds
Of the loving family you left behind

Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee

Short Epitaphs for Headstone or Urn Inscription:

Loving Father, Husband, Brother, and Friend

Loving Mother, Wife, Sister, and Friend

Faithful and Loving Husband

Faithful and Loving Wife

  (etc.)

Sadly Missed, Lovingly Remembered

Forever Remembered, Forever Missed

Safe In the Arms of Jesus

Asleep In Jesus

He, Being Dead, Yet Speaketh (Hebrews 11:4)

Absent From the Body, Present With the Lord

In God’s Care

I Know My Redeemer Lives

We Love You Always

He Loved and Was Loved

In the Cross of Christ I Glory

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Blessed Are the Dead That Die In the Lord

In His Keeping

In God’s Hand

Forever In Our Hearts

At Rest

At Peace

Though Gone From Sight To Memory Dear

Until We Meet Again

Safe At Last the Harbour Past

Forever In Our Thoughts

Rest In Peace

May He Rest In Peace

May She Rest In Peace

Much Loved

Peace At Last

Social Media Marketing Strategies

The keyword that everyone is familiar with in the industry is social media marketing services. The promise that is a part of social media for businesses is the ability to get into direct contact with individuals and to begin building a business identity that gets results from others. If you are looking into this concept for your own business, then you will want to understand some of the methods that are used for professional services, as well as how this can benefit you with your own identity.

Probably you as a consistent online user may have heard of social networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Blogger, and the like. You may have even used one of these websites to promote your business and advertise there, given the fact that there are a lot of subscribers, but how many are there really? As of now, Facebook alone has over 500 million users and still growing, along other popular networks not trailing far lower in terms of user database.c

Syndicated videos. Videos are increasingly accepted as a means of reaching a larger, targeted audience with interactive and engaging content. Videos may be hosted on YouTube or other providers and syndicated across networks, or be featured on a company-owned web property.

How effective can Twitter be with so many Tweets being sent? Yes, the people active in Twitter are getting a lot of Tweets and as a result your advertising message has to be of interest to your followers to get noticed. There are a lot of direct messages and useless information floating around Twitter as noise.

On these social media channels, you find a large number of visitors, and many of them would love to visit your website to know what you are selling.

This is something that will increase your website traffic, with which there will be an increase in the chances of selling your products. Moreover, when more people start following your link and visit your website, this makes search engines to tag your website as a popular link, which in turn improves your ranking.

Social media marketing is not a one time process. For instance, let’s take the example of marketing through the social networks like Facebook. To get noticed in the social networking crowd, your profile should be active. All the profiles should be updated with some content frequently. Fresh, updated content is always loved by the search engine bots.

Give or add value- Once it is known, who the target audience is, value needs to be added to them. Know what questions arise in the mind of the audience, what problems they face and what their needs are. The answers to all this can be put on your website in the form of articles, blogs and videos. Social networking sites can be used for this purpose. People do not want to waste their time and would like to work with a leader.

Bookmarking and media marketing is a vibrant marketing strategy to market your website, products, and services. You can create your own content and distribute it in the market to make a more effective impact on your audience. It’s considered as one of the latest kinds of viral marketing because the messages sent through such outlets reaches the target market within seconds!
