10 Funniest Tombstone Messages

I told you so

The name William H. Hahn Jr probably won’t invoke any recognition in any of us. If anything, the man was just an ordinary person like all of us. What makes him a bit of a legend in Princetown is his gravestone. The man ordered his own tombstone about two weeks before he was supposed to die. The saying on it? A very simple, but effective saying that definitely packs a punch: “I told you I was sick.”. Yikes, his close ones must have hated to see that when they went to bury the man, and it definitely gives us an idea of the type of person he was. One thing is for sure, he had a great sense of humor, despite how petty he seems to have been.

And he is not the only one with such a saying on his gravestone. Spike Milligan, who was an Irish writer and comedian, has a similar version inscribed, but he has it in Gaelic. The translation reads “I told you I was ill.”. A true comedian to the bones!
