The Allusionist

CHAPTER

Love It, Husband, Father, Great Grandfather, Brother, Brother

I think it's a hard thing to write epitaphs. People don't know what to say, so they just sort of say something. But then when you go to a cemetery like we are now, you will see as we walk around, they'll all kind of look or sound the same. And I feel like a jerk having any kind of judgment on this family that wrote loving memories and of you will live forever. That's nicer than to know him is to love him. The quotation marks make it seem like the fantastic is sarcastic. You've got to be really careful with punctuation.
