Merv Griffin's tombstone gets last laugh
MERV GRIFFIN'S TOMBSTONE:
NO JOKE!
Hollywood legend Merv Griffin is still getting laughs — from beyond the grave.
As one of his final wishes, the late talk show king asked that his granite grave stone bear this tongue-in-cheek inscription: "I will not be right back after this message."
Now his irreverent last words are drawing crowds to the tiny Westwood Village Memorial Park in Los Angeles — which is also the last resting place of Hollywood legends Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Carroll O'Connor and Jack Lemmon.
Told that Merv is still getting laughs in the graveyard, his company spokesperson Marcia Newberger told The ENQUIRER: "Merv would have wanted it exactly that way."
Merv died Aug. 12 at age 82 after a long battle with prostate cancer. He left a $1 billion estate — and a legacy of smiles.

I think it's wonderful that he had such a wonderful sense of humor, even in the end.

Maybe it's too early in the morning, but I don't find it all that funny.

I used to love watching him when I was a kid (yes, I was a strange kid) and I like his tombstone.

I like it. Good to have a sense of humor (even if you don't think the line is that funny). Better than some praying angel crap.

I wish a lot of celebs would say that before they pass away.
