Another Wooden Headboard,

this time from St. Peter's Church, Arlesley, Bedfordshire 

In Memory of Mary the wife of Joseph Newbury

Remember me when you pass by. As you are now, so once was I.

As I am now, so you must be, Prepare yourself to follow me.

After reading an epitaph like this, life sounds all downhill from now on.
