Epitaph for Dummies

Alright, so "epitaph" is a word that's used when we talk about something that's written on a gravestone. It's kind of like a short message or a piece of writing that's meant to honor and remember someone who has passed away. It's like a little tribute that's written in stone, and it's usually found at the end of the person's life. It's a way for people to pay their respects and remember the person who is no longer with us.

For example, it might say something like "Beloved mother and friend" or "In loving memory of John Smith." It's a way for people to remember important details about the person's life and to let others know how much they were loved and will be missed.

So, when we talk about an epitaph, we're talking about the words that are written on a gravestone to honor and remember someone who has died. It's a way for people to connect with the person's memory, even after they're no longer here with us. It's like a little message that's meant to keep their memory alive for those who come to visit their final resting place.
