TOMBSTONE TUESDAY: They died in an unusual way

These tombstones reveal the unusual way the people died:

Albany, New York

Henry Edsel Smith

Born 1903 – Died 1942

Looked up the elevator shaft to see if the car was on the way down……it was

Uniontown, Pennsylvania Cemetery

Here lies the Body of Jonathan Blake

Stepped on the Gas Instead of the Brake

Enosburg Falls, Vermont

Anna Hopewell

Here lies the body of our Anna

Done to death by a banana

It wasn’t the fruit that laid her low

But the skin of the thing that made her go

Discordance: The Cottinghams Inspired by true events and the Cottingham family that resided in 17th century Somerset, Maryland, and Delaware, colonial America comes alive with pirate attacks, religious discord, and governmental disagreements in the pre-Revolutionary War days of America.
