This is how my tombstone read: Elizabeth Anne Taylor. April 25, 1974-April 25, 2004. Our sweetheart, only resting. Only, I wasn’t resting under it. I had, of course, died in the spring.

By the time it was finished, no funeral, no service, no burial. So anyway, my tombstone had been in storage for the last six months.
