In this blog series, we share meaningful memorial inscriptions you can use on your loved one’s headstone. From values to character, personality and interests, this series provides endless memorial quote options unique to your loved one’s life. Other articles in this series include:

“...to have and to hold from this day forward.”

This traditional marriage vow takes on a new meaning when loving couples are laid together in their final resting place. Whether side-by-side or in a double-depth plot, it’s common for couples to be buried next to each other. 

No matter if a couple is planning their memorial design together or individually after the husband or wife passes, one of the first items that need to be considered is how the headstone design will honor both of their lives. You can include common inscriptions—name, birth date, death date and marriage anniversary—but is there a memorial quote that represents the love they had for one another?

Memorial quotes can be simple and include a few descriptive words, or they can be a lengthier personal inscription that reflects the individual’s values, character, personality or interests.

In this post, we offer several different memorial quote considerations for husband and wife headstones.
